密歇根州人力公司老板认罪：十余年欠缴约170万美元就业税
美国司法部2026年10月20日宣布，密歇根州 Fenton 居民 Roxanne L. Huneycutt 当日就一项串谋诈骗美国政府的罪名认罪。Huneycutt 自2012年起拥有并经营一系列全方位人力派遣公司，这些公司为客户招募从事体力劳动、办公室行政等工作的临时员工，并负责处理员工的工资与就业税。
根据法庭文件与法庭陈述，2012年至2024年间，Huneycutt 经营的公司累计未向国税局 IRS 缴纳约170万美元就业税。IRS 曾在2015年认定她蓄意不缴纳部分就业税并对其处以罚款，但她既未缴纳罚款，也未开始依法合规经营。为掩盖串谋行为，她多次更改公司名称与经营地点，并向密歇根州提交文件、谎称自己不是公司所有人。司法部指出，她把公司款项用于旅行、服装、珠宝、住房与家居装饰等个人开支。
Huneycutt 已就一项串谋诈骗美国政府的罪名认罪，量刑定于2027年2月18日，最高可判五年监禁，最终刑期将由联邦地区法院法官参照量刑指南等因素决定。她的同谋此前已就同一罪名认罪，正在等待量刑。本案由司法部与国税局（IRS）刑事调查部门联合查办，司法部国家欺诈执法司助理司法部长 Colin M. McDonald 公布了这一消息。
Michigan Staffing Company Owner Pleads Guilty: $1.7 Million Employment Tax Conspiracy
The U.S. Department of Justice announced on October 20, 2026, that Roxanne L. Huneycutt of Fenton, Michigan, pleaded guilty that day to conspiring to defraud the United States. Since 2012, Huneycutt owned and oversaw a series of full-service staffing companies that recruited temporary employees to perform manual labor, office administration and other tasks for clients, and that were responsible for handling the employees' payroll and employment taxes.
According to court documents and statements made in court, from 2012 through 2024 the staffing companies failed to pay approximately $1.7 million in employment taxes to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In 2015, the IRS assessed penalties against Huneycutt for willfully failing to pay over certain employment taxes, but she neither paid the penalties nor began complying with the law. To support the conspiracy and avoid detection, she changed the names and physical locations of the companies and filed paperwork with the State of Michigan indicating that she was not an owner. Prosecutors said she spent company proceeds on personal expenses including travel, clothing, jewelry, housing and home decoration.
Huneycutt pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States. She is scheduled to be sentenced on February 18, 2027, and faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison; a federal district court judge will determine the sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors. Her co-conspirator previously pleaded guilty to the same count and is awaiting sentencing. Assistant Attorney General Colin M. McDonald of the Justice Department's National Fraud Enforcement Division made the announcement.
The case was investigated jointly by the Justice Department and IRS Criminal Investigation.
