Disgraced Florida Attorney / Ex-Sheriff To Fork Over $46K To IRS

The St. Petersburg Times reports:

• Broward County's former sheriff has agreed to pay about $46,000 in back taxes, interest and penalties to the Internal Revenue Service, federal court records show. The payments stem from Ken Jenne's guilty plea in September to tax evasion and wire fraud conspiracy for accepting thousands of dollars in hidden payments and favors while sheriff. Jenne resigned in disgrace on Sept. 4 after a nine-year tenure as sheriff.

Jenne, 60, also a former Florida state senator and a former partner at the high powered, Fort Lauderdale law firm formerly known as Conrad, Scherer & Jenne, is currently awaiting his scheduled Nov. 16 sentencing. He is looking at 18 to 24 months in prison. For more, see Former sheriff to pay $46,000 to IRS.
