A former exotic dancer who allegedly made about $80,000 in tips during one year is now facing multiple felony charges for failing to report the money as income.
Stephanie Antes, 28, of Albertville, is charged with five felony counts and one gross misdemeanor count of failing to file and pay income taxes and filing a false income tax return, according to the Minnesota Department of Revenue.
Antes worked as an exotic dancer and waitress at Rick's Cabaret in Minneapolis between 2004 and 2006. A tipster called the Department of Revenue to report that Antes had made around $80,000 per year in tips that she didn't report.
According to the criminal charges, her bank statements showed that she deposited $27,000 in 2004 and $76,000 in 2005, exceeding the income amounts she reported for those years by thousands of dollars.
She also received a large state refund in 2005 because she claimed both of her children as dependents, even though their father also claimed them.
Antes did not return calls for comment, but according to her MySpace page, she graduated from North Hennepin Community College with a degree in nursing in 2005.

Sorry, need pics to determine guilt.
Pictures, pictures, pictures or forever hold your peace, peas and piece.

Fair Tax, don’t cheat the IRS and don’t deposit money in the bank you don’t plan on claiming.
First thing I thought was that pics would be included for us to make an educated decision!
I bet this tipster was real popular in grade school....NOT!
Well, where is IRS’ proof beyond an anyonymous “tip”???
If they can’t produce any, she should sue THEM. Bloodsuckers they are.
It wasn’t a tip. Those were gifts.
That’s a heck of a lot of 1 and 5 dollar bills. I would demand a recount (unless of course the money has already been Washed)
Mattresses, they're not just for turning tricks on.

USELESS WITHOUT PICTURES
Lesson to all : Do not deposit any cash windfalls in your bank account.
Will they be stripping her of her assets?
‘A tipster called the Department of Revenue to report that Antes had made around $80,000 per year in tips that she didn’t report. ‘
Either the father of her kids, or a former boyfriend did this.
Second comment: Taxing tips was a bad idea when first conceived, and its still a bad idea.
Third comment...she must be SMOKING HOT.
How tall of a stack would 80,000 $1 bills be?
If she wants to commit fraud and not only get away with it but be rewarded with praise, perks, privilege and power she should have run for office. Given this is Minnesota all she would have to do in order to win is dress up in a clown suit, expose herself now and then (she already has this one down pat) and treat the voters as if most of them are slightly retarded children (which they are).
Either that or marry one who has already made the effort and now resides for life suckling at the public teat while participating in the massive shake-down racket that is modern governance.
She converted it to nipples and dimes. I couldn’t help it.
Currency Transaction Report (CTR)
A currency transaction report (CTR) is a report that U.S. financial institutions are required to file for each deposit, withdrawal, exchange of currency, or other payment or transfer, by, through, or to the financial institution which involves a transaction in currency of more than $10,000. Used in this context, currency means the coin and/or paper money of any country that is designated as legal tender by the country of issuance. Currency also includes U.S. silver certificates, U.S. notes, Federal Reserve notes and official foreign bank notes.

Explain to her the relationship between advertising revenue, using the word stripper in the title, then not adding a picture of said stripper.
No doubt someone who was declined 'upgrade' service.
Did the Department of Revenue investegators spend months at the strip joint to make an estimate of how much the typical stripper got in an hour? "It's not a grope if you are auditing the G-string."
Thanks a lot weegee, rinsing my eyes in Drano now...
I'd be offended if only everything you wrote weren't entirely true.
I dated a nurse or two in my yout’ in Minnesota, never dated one that danced exotically. darn.
Well, it IS Minnesota.
How could someone turn in such a nice girl? I heard she’d give the shirt off her back to ANYONE!
This may be her.
From the article, she has a MySpace page. Probably a pic there if anyone cares enough to do some sleuthing.
Picture?
I'm shocked!
Thats my point. If you go down to the local casino and hit it big on the craps table it is unreported because it is a board game and you get paid in cash if you desire. Don’t come home and deposit that cash in your bank.
oops... that stephanie is from Boston, MA.
That Stephanie is NOT GUILTY.
the dems are in charge and they want more money... so they are going to go after everything and anything.
hide your piggy banks boys & girls, it’s going to get real ugly as the dems try to put everyone in the US into the bread line (or one step from it)
Would this be considered a pole tax?
I think taxing tips is wrong.
This Stephanie is from Minnesota but she is a RN.

Excuse me ... she’s a petite, single mother, honor student, sex worker ... forced into the industry to feed her children. Didn’t the Duke Lacrosse case teach the Red Star anything?!
(Oops, she’s appears to be white.)
Never mind ...
Eighty grand is a lot of laps. She’d probably qualify for a sizable “friction wear” deduction.
“I think taxing tips is wrong.”
Me too. Actually, I think taxing any kind of income is wrong.
Do you think tips are different than other income?
If she can make $80,000 a year, why go to college to work as an assistant?
Once you are over the hurdle of whether you WOULD do it?
It’s like when the Left says that they want abortion to be safe, legal, and “rare” even though they proclaim no moral issues in having an abortion. Why make it rare then?
Yeah, it’s different. It’s me giving the waitress a couple bucks as a gift. I don’t have a problem with taxing income. Taxing property and tips, though, I don’t support.
Stephanie is underpaid.
I think you nailed it! Read her profile at post #41!
Originally she only got $50,000 but during a recount an additional $30,000 was “found”. You know, this being Minnesota.
