I got many IRS stories but this kinda beats a good few!
There is a US citizen living in what is regarded as an offshore country - like 70% of em he ain't paid the IRS their "dues". So.. the IRS prepare a bundle of impressive looking fraud charges and then attempt to extradict him to the US to live in a cell for 20 years.
They send two agents to present the extradiction case to this country's courts. As a formality the judge requests some credentials from the agents and some background info. It turns out that the pair of em entered the country illegally using false papers - they then went along to several offshore banks and present false documents to the banks in an attempt to open private accounts for themselves in false names *g*
The judge accepted their documents for the extradiction of the "perp" and is considering em. In the meantime, the IRS agents were arrested for numerous offences and then released and allowed to return the US.
Their court case is due this month, but I got little doubt that they will turn up for this event and, in real life, the courts are not gonna bother wasting time extradicting em. They will just have outstanding warrants for arrest the day they ever decided to return here.
*g* Wonder if the judge will let the IRS hypocracy affect his findings on the "perp"? Gotta feeling it might go along the lines of Go Fuck Yourself!
