ELI5: Please explain how Al Sharpton owes 19 million in back taxes and isn't in jail

It seems that everyone goes to jail over tax evasion except him. Does anyone know why he doesn't go to jail? Is it because he was an FBI informant and they are still using him? Just seems odd.

1) He doesn't owe 19 million in back taxes.

2) Typically, people are arrested for tax *evasion*. By all accounts the IRS is very good at providing payment arrangements to those who owe back taxes. After all, their primary goal is to collect their money and it's hard for inmates to pay off their debts.
