Noriega also admitted to court that during tax years 2009-2013, she made more than $2.5 million dollars in cash withdrawals from her company bank account. Some proceeds of these withdrawals were used to pay employees in cash, while some of the proceeds were used for her own personal benefit

Noriega went on to admit that she failed to accurately report to the IRS the number of employees, total payments to the employees and the employees' and employers' share of federal employment taxes due to the IRS.

She also admitted that she failed to accurately report her own personal income, thus she failed to pay the appropriate amount of taxes due to the IRS.

IRS Investigation

An investigation by the IRS revealed that she failed to pay $580,066 in payroll taxes on behalf of New Diamond Work, Inc., for the quarters ending March 31, 2009 through December 31,2013.

During tax years 2009-213, she failed to pay personal income taxes totaling $140,857.

Noriega is scheduled to be sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge John McConnell Jr., on June 24, 2016.
