United states tax collector

The scene of the trial.

"This...how can this be regarded as tax evasion? I didn't know that this stone was worth 550 US dollars. I just bought it and took it home because it looked good. This is simply unjust. Let's comment on it!"

Flynn was so aggrieved that he turned to look at the people listening, hoping that the people present could say something to him.

But after David's frivolous operation with coupons and tips, no one dared to speak for him.

They were also afraid. After all, David was someone who dared to arrest people on the street and then drag them into court for trial.

If they come forward and David also finds some excuse like tip coupons to accuse them of tax evasion, where can they go to complain?

What's more, the courts and judges here are all from the Internal Revenue Service. If they dare to talk too much, they will be charged with contempt of court, which is too much to bear.

"Flynn, I have said many times that people from your human rights organization should know the law better than ordinary people, so the unexpected benefits must be reported to our IRS for tax payment, and the stone you picked up is worth 550 US dollars. , but you didn’t report and pay taxes, so why should you be sentenced for tax evasion?”

David repeated what he said before, but Flynn still expressed dissatisfaction. He retorted: "I understand the law, but I really don't understand the value of this stone. Those who don't know are not guilty. Your national tax The bureau can’t just charge people with random charges, right?”

"He who doesn't know is not guilty? Okay, then I'll let you give up!"

David reached into a file bag, took out a USB flash drive again, and handed it to a staff member on site.

The staff member immediately inserted the playback device, and soon, a picture appeared on the big screen.

The picture showed a jade shop, and the next second a man walked into the shop. This man was none other than Flynn, who was now standing in the dock.

"Hello sir, how can I help you?"

"Hello, please help me identify this stone."

"OK, just a second……"

In the store, a staff member took the stone handed over by Flynn and placed it directly under an instrument. After about two or three minutes, the man took out the stone, returned to Flynn and said, "Sir, this is a stone." The market value of red beryl is about US$550, do you want to sell it?"

"No need at the moment, thank you."

The scene ended abruptly here, but everyone in the courtroom had different expressions at this time.

Everyone in the gallery knew that Flynn would no longer be able to use the excuse that he was innocent, because the video had proven that he had gone to identify the stone, which also proved that he was I know the price of this jade.

In other words, he was doomed.

In the dock, Flynn was in despair. He didn't expect that David would even get this video. The appearance of this video could be regarded as defeating the reason he had used to defend himself.

When the atmosphere in the venue was silent, Nicola on the stage knocked her gavel and said: "Defendant Flynn, now the evidence is conclusive, proving that you are not ignorant of the value of this stone, what else do you have to say? "

Flynn was speechless, and Jeff on the side also understood that the IRS was determined to charge their members with charges, and the most important thing was to find a reason to charge them, so he was also speechless at this moment.

"Since the defendant and the defense lawyer did not rebut, this court declares that the defendant is guilty of tax evasion! In addition, as a member of a human rights organization, the defendant is familiar with the law and should know that windfall income is subject to windfall income tax, and the defendant But knowing this law and still choosing to conceal it is an even greater crime!"

After Nicola finished speaking, Flynn below was almost crying.

At this moment, he wished that he was not a member of a human rights organization, but an ordinary citizen.

In this case, the IRS cannot forcibly charge him with the fact that he is familiar with the law as a member of a human rights organization.

When he thought of the cruel punishment he would face next, Flynn panicked completely. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "No, I don't accept your sentence. I want to appeal..."

"The appeal is invalid and dismissed!"

Nicola's cold words not only made Flynn's face pale, but also the two companions beside him. They had been criticizing the IRS for abusing their private power to make remarks and trampling on the human rights of citizens. But they didn't expect that today, This private power was used on their behalf.

"Now the verdict is announced!"

Nicola stood up directly and read loudly: "The defendants Ted, Flynn, and Darwin were found guilty of tax evasion!"

"And as someone from a human rights organization who is familiar with federal laws, it will be regarded as knowing the law and breaking the law with an additional penalty!"

"Ted is now sentenced to 30 years in prison with no possibility of parole for life!"

"Sentence Darwin to 30 years in prison with no possibility of parole for life!"

"Sentence Flynn to 30 years in prison with no possibility of parole for life!"

Although many people have guessed that once these three people are charged with crimes, they will definitely be sentenced to heavy sentences, but they were still really shocked after receiving such a heavy sentence of 30 years.

30 years!

How many 30 years can there be in life?

The people like Rodgorski were sentenced to thousands of years in prison. Although this punishment was cruel, it was excusable. After all, these people were not only extremely evil, but also evaded tens of millions in taxes. .

Now, the three members of this human rights organization have only escaped tens of dollars in tax at most. Ted only received a tip of 20 dollars and only had to pay 2 dollars in tax according to the tax rate.

And just because you evaded such a small amount of tax, you have to undergo 30 years of torture. This has to be said to be too shocking.

But it didn't take long for everyone at the scene to feel relieved.

The reason why these three people were sentenced to such heavy penalties was certainly not because they evaded such a small amount of tax.

The main reason is that I chose to go against David and the IRS, which is why I ended up like this!

Therefore, it may not be an exaggeration to say that they are to blame for all this.

Thinking of this, the celebrities from all walks of life present had an idea in their minds, that is, if they were also approached by David, it would be best not to resist but to spend money to eliminate the disaster. Otherwise, they might also be detained. If you are charged with such a crime, then you really have no place to cry.

"Your Honor, I strongly protest against this. Even if they are convicted of tax evasion, but the amount is so small, they definitely should not be given such a heavy sentence of 30 years. Such a sentence is seriously contrary to our country's judicial standards. It will cause chaos to our country’s judicial process!”

Jeff was anxious. Originally, the organization sent him to fight against the IRS to prevent the IRS from making arbitrary charges.

But now that the charges have been attached, he actually allowed members of his organization to receive such a heavy sentence. If this is the outcome, then he will not have the shame to serve as the chief lawyer of the Los Angeles Human Rights Organization in the future.

"Defense lawyer, you need to understand that the Ministry of Justice is a matter of the Ministry of Justice, and the IRS is another system. The measurement standards of the two cannot be the same. Don't confuse them. Reject the protest!"

What Nicola is actually saying is, ‘We, the Qing Dynasty, have our own national conditions, so don’t use your dynasty’s Shangfang sword to kill our dynasty’s officials! ’

Of course Jeff understood it. At this moment he was furious, but there was nothing he could do because this was the IRS court.

At this time, Ted, who was in the dock, also came back to his senses from 30 years of brutal punishment. He roared: "Fuck, I just evaded tax. It was only 2 US dollars in tax. Why should I be sentenced to 30 US dollars?" Year? Why? Where is the basis?"

"Hmph, you want to know why, right? Then I'll tell you!"

"The basis of this court's penalty is not based on the amount of money, but on the severity of the circumstances. It's like a robber who only robbed 1 US dollar, but because the circumstances were too egregious, he was sentenced to ten Isn’t the year unreasonable?”

"The same goes for your tax evasion. If the circumstances are serious, we can also sentence you to 30 years!"

Nicola can become a judge of the Internal Revenue Service, and her eloquence theory is naturally not weak. With these words alone, Ted was so stunned that he didn't know how to refute.

"Take it down and execute it immediately!"

"Fake, I don't accept it, I don't accept it!"

"I want to appeal, and I want to find the media to expose the abuse of power by your IRS!"

"..."

Although the three people continued to curse and express their dissatisfaction, how could the law enforcement officers of the Internal Revenue Service on the scene coddle them and directly lift them down like pigs.

Nicola knocked the gavel and said, "Okay everyone, today's trial is over!"

Celebrities from all walks of life in the auditorium stood up one after another, and after looking at David with fearful eyes, they walked out of the door in an orderly manner.

The person from the IRS system here came to David, and João was the first to speak: "Director David, you really can handle this in such a short period of time." Three people, I believe that after this incident, you will feel more at home in your jurisdiction!"

Using tips, coupons, and jade to charge these three members of the human rights organization, although it seems a bit unjustifiable, is in line with the style of their IRS.

In addition, after the news of today's penalty spreads, people from all walks of life will definitely be more afraid of their IRS.

After all, even tips and coupons can be grounds for conviction, so who can guarantee that one day they will not be charged with such a crime?

In this way, in order to avoid being charged, those suspected of tax evasion must pay the tax obediently!

"Maybe……"

Of course David also knows that today's court hearing may be very shocking when news spreads, but it will only have a greater impact on the lawless elements in the jurisdiction.

As for the group of capitalists in Hollywood, it may not be easy to get them to pay their taxes openly and truthfully.

"Okay, Director David, this is your credit. Go out and report the results to the media!"

Hearing Joao's reminder, David nodded and then came to the elevator. He took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor and walked out of the door.

The media, who had been waiting for news for a long time, saw David, the 'starring actor', appearing, and immediately swarmed around him.

"Director David, are there any results against the three members of the human rights organization?"

David pressed his hands down and waited until everyone was quiet before saying, "The results are in. The three of them were convicted of tax evasion and were each sentenced to 30 years in prison!"

"What! Convicted of tax evasion? And sentenced to thirty years in prison?"

The media at the scene were all dumbfounded after hearing this.

"My hair, that's impossible. He's a member of a human rights organization. How could he be convicted so easily?"

"Oh my god, how long have it been since the three of them were arrested? No matter how powerful the IRS is, it is impossible to collect evidence of their crimes in such a short period of time, right? What's more, have they really committed a crime?"

"After all, it is the court of the IRS. I think...the IRS is not guilty of abusing lynching, right?"

At the same time, after hearing David's words, the Internet suddenly went crazy.

Los Angeles, human rights organization headquarters.

Butler and other members were still waiting with great anticipation for the IRS to be defeated, and then they were ready to go up to the heights to shout out the great image of the crowned warrior, but they did not expect that they were waiting in front of the TV for this result. This made them All of them were stunned as if a immobilizing spell had been cast on them.

It was not until half a minute later that Butler was the first to come to his senses. He punched the table and cursed angrily: "Fake Squid, who can tell me what is going on? Our people How come he was sentenced to 30 years, what is that bastard Jeff doing!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone at the scene didn't dare to take a breath, and they were also puzzled. Their three members didn't have any tax problems. How could such a result happen?

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and the person who walked in was none other than Jeff, who had rushed back from the court.

As soon as he saw his return, Butler immediately asked: "You came back just in time, Jeff. If you can't give me a reasonable explanation for this, you don't have to stay at the human rights organization!"

Jeff looked bitter, but he still spoke slowly: "President Butler, everyone, the thing is like this..."

Jeff described the tips, coupons, and jade in detail.

After hearing what he said, Butler and others were even more dumbfounded. Can tipping with coupons and jade be considered tax evasion?

"What the hell are you talking about Jeff, tips, coupons, jade, this can also make him charged with tax evasion? Are you drunk or something?"

Butler rebuked directly, and the other members present looked at Jeff with dissatisfaction.

"This...I don't want to..."

Jeff looked aggrieved and explained: "The Black Tax Act has a 'Profit Regulation'. The definition of this regulation is very broad. In short, as long as an individual generates profits, whether it is robbery, fraud, or Nowadays, as long as tips and coupons generate income, they need to pay taxes to the IRS. He insists on deducting this regulation now, and I can't refute it..."

"Then according to what you say, if he doesn't like anyone in the future and uses this so-called 'Profit Regulation' to slap that person, who can escape?"

"Then this person has to pray that he really has no clue..."

"Are you kidding yourself? The United States has a population of 300 million. Not to mention that there are at least 10 million people who receive tips, right? Then aren't these 10 million people guilty of tax evasion?"

Jeff shrank his head: "Strictly speaking, that's the case, but David and the IRS will definitely not pursue it seriously. They will pursue us mainly...mainly..."

What he wanted to say was that it was mainly because the people from his human rights organization made trouble and went against David that he ended up like this, but in the end he couldn't say this.

But even though he didn't say anything, Butler and the others, not saying they were fools, naturally understood. He could only curse angrily: "Damn it."

"Wait a minute... Jeff, even if he was charged with tax evasion, how many dollars did he escape? Our man was sentenced to 30 years? Are you a dead man? You can't argue with reason?"

"Yes, the eight criminal group leaders in front were sentenced to 20 years. Even if we, the people from the human rights organization, evaded taxes, how much did we escape? They were sentenced to 30 years. This sentence does not make sense, does it? "

"..."

Facing the questioning of everyone, Jeff felt aggrieved again. He argued, but it was useless. It was the judge's court of the Internal Revenue Service. Could he still rush to the judge's seat? Is it possible to overturn the judge’s decision?

"Hello senior human rights organizations, I know you are watching!"

Just when the atmosphere was tense, a voice came from the TV, causing everyone to put aside their prejudice against Jeff and turn their heads to look at the TV.

At this time, the TV still showed David being interviewed. He continued: "Listen to me, your human rights organization is a public welfare organization. I have always respected you and upheld your principles. The attitude of not disturbing the water of the well."

"However, some of your members are so irrational. They want to step on our IRS every day to get the limelight. This has seriously affected the operation of our work. So after I finish handling the matters at hand, I may go to your headquarters. Help you get rid of these bad apples!"

As soon as David said this, Butler and others were stunned again.

Isn't this a naked threat to their human rights organizations in front of the whole world?

"Fake, Fake, this bastard actually dares to threaten us!"

"Damn it, this bastard is so arrogant. He really thinks that our human rights organization is easy to bully, right?"

"President Butler, we can no longer sit back and wait, we must fight back!"

Members of the human rights group were furious.

David sentenced their members to 30 years in prison for such trivial charges, and now he still dares to threaten them in front of the whole world.

If we don't react to this, won't their human rights organizations become a joke in the future?

What else is there to talk about becoming a human rights fighter?
