The Rev. Al Sharpton owed at least $1.8 million in back taxes before striking a sweetheart deal with the feds last summer that chopped the bill almost in half and kept him out of the slammer, The Post has learned.
A series of federal liens — the most recent of which was filed earlier this month — provide a window into the massive tax debts the firebrand activist incurred since 2002 as he remade himself into a millionaire media personality, newly released documents show.
Treasury Department officers say Sharpton owed $351,798 from 2007, according to a document filed March 3 with the New York County Register Office.
This unpaid balance — a potential mix of back taxes and penalties — comes on top of a federal lien filed last Nov. 13 for $1,367,521 covering tax years 2005 and 2006.
