Report: Grimm to plead guilty to tax evasion
U.S. Rep. Michael Grimm, who was hit with a 20-count indictment on charges of fraud and income tax evasion in April, plans to plead guilty to one of the counts, the New York Daily News reported.
Grimm (R-C-Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights-Staten Island) was set to enter a guilty plea on a charge of income tax evasion in Brooklyn Federal Court on Dec. 23, according to the Daily News, which reported the story on its website at on Monday afternoon.
It’s not clear, however, if the guilty plea will mean that Grimm will be forced to resign from Congress.
