Frankfort, KY – The newly created Division of Special Investigations in Kentucky's Department of Revenue has netted 50 criminal indictments during its first year of operation. Finance Secretary Jonathan Miller praises the investigators for doing "an outstanding job" of making sure Kentuckians are paying their taxes. Investigators have identified and stopped more than $300,000 in fraudulent tax refunds, meaning that amount of restitution will be paid back to the state. Miller says Kentucky loses millions of dollars in tax revenues each year.
