Rep. Michael Grimm Expected to Plead Guilty to Tax Fraud: Official
By Jonathan Dienst
New York Rep. Michael Grimm is expected to plead guilty to a single count of tax fraud Tuesday in Brooklyn federal court, a law enforcement official familiar with the case tells NBC 4 New York.
Grimm, a Republican who represents Staten Island, was elected to a third term in November.
In April, Grimm was arrested on federal charges, including tax fraud and mail fraud, for allegedly concealing more than $1 million in sales and wages at a Manhattan restaurant he owned before he was elected to Congress.
A 20-count indictment unsealed that month accused him of under-reporting the payroll and earnings of the Upper East Side restaurant, Healthalicious, which he ran from 2007 to 2010. He pleaded not guilty in federal court and was released on bond.
