The article says he had a chance to pay retroactively with the amnesty deal, but he did not take the IRS up on the deal. So he may be guilty of massive tax fraud.

If he had paid up in 09 he would have made things right, but that would have looked bad for a presidential run, so the hypothesis is he kept quiet. Ergo, if he was hiding taxes illegally overseas, he's guilty.
