The Old I Don’t Believe in Releasing My Tax Records Bit

Appears to be about to create another problem for the GOP:

And tax records indicate the State of Maryland in 2001 filed a tax lien on the home owned by Keyes, 54, and his wife, Jocelyn, because of $7,481 in unpaid state income taxes and penalties.

On Friday, Keyes was able to pay off the tax debt with a certified check for a little more than $152, said William Pascoe, a longtime friend of Keyes’ who is volunteering as his spokesman.

A spokesperson for the Maryland state comptroller’s office said, however, that the debt “hasn’t been satisfied,” and was unable to confirm whether Keyes had made arrangements to pay the tax debt.

The lien resulted from what Pascoe called “an erroneous tax accounting” involving payments for speeches by Keyes to a personal corporation he formed to handle money he makes as a public speaker, Pascoe said.
