Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

The FTC has a judgment against me for $140,000.00 for some shady business practices they say I committed while being a private investigator. They turned it over to the IRS to collect. The IRS withheld my income tax return last year and I assume they will keep doing it. They don't garnish my wages or threaten to take my house. My question is: If my parents put me in their will to inherit their house, stocks, life insurance, bonds and/or bank accounts, will the IRS take it from me? If so, is there a way for them to set it up so that I can receive these items without it being taken from me?

I appreciate your response.
