Escambia Man Gets Prison Time After Submitting Fake Bills Of Sale For Cars

October 4, 2019

An Escambia County man is headed to prison for cheating the tax collector out of revenue on cars purchases.

Circuit Judge Jan Shackleford sentenced Christopher Canham to 24 months in state prison for two counts of theft of sales tax. After Canham completes his state prison sentence, he will be on probation for an additional three years. He previously pleaded guilty to the charges.

Between February and March of 2018, Canham submitted two fraudulent bills of sale for two cars to the Escambia County Tax Collector. On these forms he inserted fictitious trade in vehicles and falsified the total purchase prices. This had the effect of lowering the taxes due by over $6,000. Canham has a significant criminal history which includes prior convictions for theft and forgery.
