Well, not him personally, but people he chose to run the departments. Work hours were rounded off to the benefit of the department. I would say this is a bigger deal than some small potatoes back taxes.

The Board of Public Works Wednesday unanimously approved a nearly $9.5 million payout to settle wage theft claims for some current and former members of the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services.
The investigation by the U.S. Department of Labor covered three years under former Gov. Larry Hogan (R). Nearly 10,000 employees, including more than 5,000 in the latest payout, fell victim to a scheme where work hours were rounded to the benefit of the department.
Since day one, the Moore-Miller administration has been committed to working with our partners at AFSCME to bring this investigation, which has spanned years, to a conclusion as quickly as possible, Gov. Wes Moore (D) said at the BPW meeting, referring to the states public employee union.
