From the Chicago Sun-Times:

GOP operative gets probation in tax case

March 19, 2003

A federal judge on Tuesday sentenced a veteran Republican political operative to three years of probation and 400 hours of community service and fined him $4,000 for failing to report $27,175 in income on his federal tax return. Tim Holloway, 45, of Elgin, pleaded guilty last year. Most of the unreported income came from bonuses from a direct-mail company where he worked as a salesman. The firm, Unistat, was owned by indicted businessman Roger Stanley, a former Republican state representative who is a key player in the ongoing federal corruption investigation that began with allegations of wrongdoing in the Illinois secretary of state's office during George Ryan's tenure there. Stanley is cooperating with investigators. Holloway has provided "substantial cooperation" with authorities, Assistant U.S. Attorney Zachary Fardon said. Holloway has worked on the campaign of U.S. Sen. Peter Fitzgerald, among other politicians. Holloway sent many of the bonuses he received to religious charities but didn't pay taxes on them.
