Here's a lesson:
filing a false report is a big deal, and grounds for arrest and trial.
filing a correct report without paying is not. You can owe them without getting a criminal record or jail time.

So the story behind this was related cigarettes. I thought it was odd for the SBOE to pursue a vendor criminally. Cigarettes, liquor, and fuel taxes are very dear to them for some reason. The SBOE publishes a list of x amount of people who owe more than 200k in sales taxes. there are many people on there who owe over a million. there are several people on there who owe several million. None of those are charged criminally.
