The accountant I hired was someone who I knew (old teacher) I have no idea if his certs were legit or not.
He fucked off abroad when the police were investigating.
I have explained all this in old threads and posts. He tried to be clever but I got the blame and got locked up. Another reason why I hate teachers. If they not noncing your kids, indoctrination with wokey bollocks they send you to court and prison.

Tax fraud is often extremely serious and planned.
Causing damage to innocent citizens, and those conned.
Often, jail lengthy jail time is highly appropriate.
I think we should only hold dangerous (physical or sexual violence) individuals in prison to protect others. In my world people would not go to prison for tax fraud etc. There are other ways to respond to deter people, and punish them as most seem to wish to.
