IN: Burned tax documents found in alley

Posted on March 18, 2011 by Dissent

Abbey Doyle reports that burnt – but still readable – tax documents were found behind Instant Tax Service, 3735 Madison Ave., in Anderson, Indiana.

Employees inside denied burning the documents, but the manager never returned calls from the paper.

A look through papers found in the alley revealed copies of W-2 forms, complete with total wages, employer names and addresses, and the employees’ full names, addresses and Social Security numbers; old phone bills with amounts owed and other identifying information; loan documents; and entire state return and several unidentified pieces of tax documents.

Read more in The Herald Bulletin, but be prepared to grit your teeth when you read how little law enforcement can do in these situations.
