A federal grand jury in Greenville has indicted Marion Keith Sheriff, a 60-year-old from Seneca, on four counts of filing false tax returns.
Court documents and testimony reveal that Sheriff ran a landscaping business in the Upstate and is accused of failing to report over $1 million in income from cashed business checks between 2019 and 2022.
Prosecutors say that Sheriff didn’t include roughly $1,006,633 in income when he filed his taxes during those years.
If convicted, Marion Keith Sheriff could face up to three years in federal prison, a $100,000 fine, and one year of supervised release after any prison time.
U.S. District Judge Jacquelyn D. Austin has been assigned to preside over the case.
The investigation was conducted by the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division, with Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Watkins prosecuting the matter.
