Millions owed by scofflaws
By Will Collette
During the Trump years, the rich got an invisible "tax cut" when Republicans engineered huge cuts to IRS's tax enforcement programs.
That has allowed many wealthy Americans to not only get the benefit of legislated tax cuts and breaks but also the under-the-counter benefit of being able to cheat with only a low risk of getting caught.
The state has published this list before, but one change seems to have taken place - it looks to me like many of the tax cheats have moved out of state.
Take, for example, the Reillys of West Palm Beach who are #1 on the list, owing more than $2 million. They used to be the Reillys of Portsmouth where their young son Daniel ran and won a seat in the RI House of Representatives, the youngest ever. And a Republican, of course.
Number 2 on the list Giovanni Feroce, was CEO of the now bankrupt jewelry maker Alex and Ani. He ran for Governor in the 2018 Republican primary, but his tax record didn't help. He came in third of three candidates. At least he has stuck around.
Boxing champion Vinnie Pazienza has also stuck around despite owing the state over $416,000. Paz has just about always had money problems even when he had money.
I have highlighted our South County tax deadbeats, although I am sure there are others hailing from South County who are now living elsewhere.
Here's the list:

Notes
·
If your name appears on this list, please
contact the Rhode Island Division of Taxation, at Tax.Collections@tax.ri.gov. You will be provided with the
exact amount — including accrued interest — which you must pay in order to have
your name removed from this list. If you are unable to pay in full, you may
apply for an installment agreement, under which you agree to a reasonable plan
to pay your outstanding debt in stages, over time. A fully executed installment
agreement in good standing will allow us to remove your name from this list.
·
This list includes balances from active accounts
receivable that are not on an installment agreement. This list includes
transactions recorded at the Tax Division by the date indicated on the listing.
Transactions made subsequent to that date will be reflected in the next updated
list.
·
Although state law authorizes the Tax
Administrator to publish the names of 100 tax delinquents on this list, there
may be times when fewer than 100 are included. This may occur for various
reasons. For example, when a taxpayer's account information is removed from the
list as promptly as possible after that taxpayer pays the outstanding debt, the
number of delinquent taxpayers remaining on the list can fall. The Tax Division
cannot add others to the list without first following a series of legal and
administrative requirements — including the statutory requirement that
the taxpayer be given advance notice, in writing, by regular and certified
mail.
·
Authority to publish this list can be found in
Rhode Island General Laws § 44-1-34, which was enacted in 2003 and revised and
expanded in 2011.
·
From time to time, the Tax Division removes from
the list the names and account information of various taxpayers. By law, the
Tax Division cannot disclose why a specific taxpayer's name and account
information have been removed. (Please see Rhode Island General Laws § 38-2-2,
44-1-14, and 44-30-95(c).) In general, a taxpayer's name and account
information may be removed from the list for various reasons: the taxpayer may
have paid the outstanding debt, for example, or entered into an installment
agreement. Also, as a general rule, the Tax Division may remove names and
related information for various other reasons — such as the death of a
taxpayer, or a taxpayer's entering into bankruptcy or receivership.
·
The list is updated periodically.
