The chairman of a parks and recreation commission in Massachusetts was indicted for stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from a local youth baseball and softball organization and failing to report the money to the IRS.

Beginning in 2019, when Christopher Gerstel, Vice President of Baseball Operations for the local little league, was facing thousands of dollars in credit card debt, he began diverting league funds into his personal bank account. Gerstel was caught when a new treasurer reviewed the organization’s finances and discovered unusually large transfers from the league’s bank account into the umpire payment system.

He was charged with 12 counts of wire fraud, two counts of filing false tax returns, and three counts of failure to file. He faces a lengthy prison sentence and restitution. Read about this and more in our latest Tax Resolution Times.
