Comments on: Tax evasion scandal Germany http://www.cherylontheweb.com/2008/02/17/tax-evasion-scandal-germany/ About the small things in life that seem oh so big Mon, 06 Oct 2008 12:40:28 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2 By: Roy H http://www.cherylontheweb.com/2008/02/17/tax-evasion-scandal-germany/#comment-4529 Roy H Sat, 23 Feb 2008 09:23:28 +0000 http://www.cherylontheweb.com/2008/02/17/tax-evasion-scandal-germany/#comment-4529 There are several rumors which make this "sale of data" a bit more fascinating. One rumor has it....that the list of 900...are folks with accounts over 5 million Euro. The list is believed to be a "gold" club type list and the guys who were 4.99 million or less didn't get onto this CD. If true....then alot of guys are sitting there safe and happy....and a the big guys are going to pay the Germans the bulk of the pain. This also has some folks thinking about how serious this might cost in pain. If twenty of these 900 are soccer coaches....and face fail time....then every club in Germany may have issues and face massive hiring problems in finding new coaches. The rumor also is that if you don't quickly admit your problem....you will get jail time....possibly up to six or seven years. So lots of folks may be thinking of just leaving Germany and disappearing into the Pacific....or admitting the issue and paying $30 million in fines.

Usually these people are immune to the rules and regulations and therefore of the consequences of "regular folk". I am living in America and supposedly one is innocent until proven guilty but not really. If you are poor your chances of having the same justice as say someone such as Zumwinkel are almost none existent. Nonetheless, I hope that the investigation is fair and balance and above all just. Bye the way, do you know the name of the street of Zumwinkel's house? I know it is in the suburb of Marienburg in Cologne but I do not know the street name. Email it to me if you come across it. THANKS. While I agree with you in that the informant’ morality, I must say that I applaude the courage of the government to go after someone of that stature.
