Cantonment Woman Charged With Not Filing State Sales Tax For Bakery
February 17, 2022
A Cantonment woman has been charged with not filing sales tax returns.
Carmina Balderas Colorado was charged with three felony counts of failing to file state sales tax returns.
According to the Florida Department of Revenue, Colorado failed to file six consecutive returns or remit payment for taxes that were collected.
A state investigator said Colorado filed sales tax returns and paid the taxes from March through May 2017 and then again from January through August 2018 for the Panaderia Bakery at 41 West Nine Mile Road. She did not file sales and use tax returns or make payments for the period September 2018 through February 2020. The business has since closed.
A tax warrant for $20,814.34 was filed against Colorado and a final judgment was issued in Escambia County Circuit Court in February 2020.
According to an arrest report, the Department of Revenue made numerous attempts to obtain a response from Colorado, including certified mail that was delivered.
Colorado was released from jail on a $15,000 bond.

TAXATION IS THEFT
!!!!
Agree with SMH but some US “citizens” and “politicians” have gone bonkers.
Our forefathers would be ashamed. Sure she probably knew the rules and ignored them but the Boston tea party wasn’t exactly following the establishments rules either.
SMH
I agree. I think the system has gone crazy.
Working for a living is overrated. You pay taxes to keep freeloaders, thugs and thieves afloat.
I agree with you SMH, it’s clear the government ( both federal and state ) cares FAR more about securing their money, than the lives of its citizens. It’s beyond disgusting at this point. That being said, if you plan on cheating the greedy government, you need to be smarter than just plain not sending in anything in at all lol! She needs to pay the taxes owed plus penalty.
better pay what dough is owed or end up in the bread line with nothing but crumbs
You collect taxes, you pay them. That simple. They even give a 1.5% discount for on time remittance! I don’t feel sorry for her. I paid my customers sales taxes for 13 years straight.
Better pay that owed dough, girl…it’s gonna rise!
@smh its always been like that nothing new just ask old Al Capone XD
WOW!!! This lady gets a $15,000 bond for a nonviolent crime yet a get-away driver
Gets a$2500 bond and the two thrives that were breaking into cars get $5,000 bonds…
Seems like druggies, drunks, and thieves get off easier than blue collar crime.
