STLtoday: Tulsa firm is accused in tax scheme

"O'FALLON, Mo. -- A drywall company was charged Thursday with failing to withhold state taxes from workers' paychecks at a construction site linked by city and union officials to illegal immigrant labor.

"Attorney General Jay Nixon and St. Charles County Prosecutor Jack Banas jointly filed charges against H & H Drywall Specialties Inc., of Tulsa, Okla., a subcontractor on the Southernside apartment complex going up in O'Fallon.

"H & H is accused of inaccurately listing employees as independent contractors to avoid sending withholding tax to the state, Nixon's office said."
