             GOVERNMENT’S SENTENCING STATEMENT FOR DEFENDANT
                             STACE WALLACE


        The United States of America, by and through J. Bishop Grewell, Acting United

 States Attorney for the District of Colorado, Tim R. Neff and Nicole C. Cassidy,

 Assistant United States Attorneys, files this Sentencing Statement for Defendant Stace

 Wallace.

        As a threshold matter, the Government has no objection to the presentence

 report [#104] or its final sentencing recommendation [#104-1].

        The Government submits that a 3 year sentence to probation and an order of

 restitution for $7,759 to the IRS is warranted in this case. As outlined in the

 presentence report, the Defendant’s pled guilty to the offense of Willful Failure to File

 Tax Return in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7203 which is a Class A Misdemeanor. The

 offense conduct relates to a three year period (2017-19) during which the Defendant did

 not timely file personal and business returns nor make timely payments to the IRS for

 taxes due and owing. PSR, ¶¶ 9-13. As noted above, the total loss to the IRS is

 minimal. The Defendant has no criminal history.

        The Government adopts and incorporates the PSR’s justification for such a

 recommended sentence. PSR, Exhibit A, R-1 [#104-1]. As noted therein, “Up until the

 instant offense, the defendant had lived what appears to be a law-abiding life.” Id.

 at R-4.

        The Government maintains that a 3 year probationary sentence will adequately

 address the sentencing factors set forth under Title 18, U.S.C. § 3553(a)(1).

        WHEREFORE, the Government requests that the Court sentence the Defendant

 as recommended above.

        Respectfully submitted this 11th day of April, 2025.
