A former employee for the Internal Revenue Service in Atlanta has been sentenced to two years in prison after she pleaded guilty to aggravated identity theft.

On at least five occasions, Stephanie Parker obtained taxpayers' Social Security numbers and addresses and used the information to file fraudulent tax returns, according to a U.S. Justice Department news release.

Parker worked as a contact representative between September 2012 and March 2013, the release said. She directed the fraudulent tax refunds to bank accounts controlled by her friends, prosecutors said.

At least once, she had money withdrawn from one of those accounts and used it for personal expenses, according to the prosecutors.

Parker had pleaded guilty in August.

None of that’s Obama’s fault. Of course.

She is a Person of Politically Privileged Pigmentation so her photo is censored by our Corrupt Liberal Media.

Two Years?? It should have been far more than this. It should have been based on how many IDs were stolen.

Anybody surprised? They are given access to privileged information as part of their affirmative action job for which they are not qualified, and which they got as a substitute for welfare, for which they are more qualified.

Nothing new for these IRS folk. Years ago one of the employees working in the Newark IRS “extaction” unit, the area where incoming is opened and sent on its way, our young enterprising crook was confronted with a check remittance wherein the taxpayer sent in two checks, one made out to IRS and one blank by mistake.

Our master criminal made out the blank check to himself, went to his bank, deposited the check into his account, and then withdrew the amount in cash over successive days all the while having his picture taken at each transaction. He figured he had not violated fed law but alas someone found a fed felony statute that covered his crime, “conversion of property of another that comes into your possession by federal employee”. By the time he was indicted, his temporary appointment had expired so the arresting officer called him and told him to report to the office for reemployment purposes. His reemployment was not at IRS rather at the prison laundry! Yes, no picture was in the news either.

“”At least once, she had money withdrawn from one of those accounts and used it for personal expenses, according to the prosecutors.””

What would be the purpose of doing it at all if she didn’t use the money?
