I wanted to let everyone on this site know that I received a letter from the IRS stating that they intend to prosecute me for violations of 26 UCS 7201 (Tax Evasion) and 26 USC 7206(1) (subscribing to false federal income tax returns). The years in question are all years where I filed returns following the outline in CTC and the law as it is laid out in the book, statutes and regulations.

This is no joke and please don't wonder if I missed a period on one of the returns. This may be the first criminal attempt against CTC and if I go down everyone on this forum who has done similar, getting money back or not, will be next in line. I have been emailing Pete about this over the last year and and today, he has responded but I have not heard from him today. If you can, let him know to contact me and if someone has his phone number please forward that. If anybody knows who the best Lawyer is for this let me know. I retained Mark Lane of WTP for letters and phone calls earlier, but I am not sure he understands CTC.

My investigation started over a year ago and it has now come to this letter where they want to meet in 2 weeks. I do have a past history for some of the years but not all.

What I want to know from this forum is if I can count on you for support both moral and financial as I/we will need the best criminal lawyer there is to kill this case at the meeting or win at trial. If you are willing to help me then email me at: rogermenner@comcast.net and put "Support" in the subject line. If you can pledge financial support that would be great I will get back to you when I have a defense fund setup. If you can only give moral support that will be appreciated also. This is a battle for all of us and right now I am a lone warrior. Let me know that you are behind me and will help do what it takes for all of us to win.

Oh, they're behind you, Roger.....running.

I think this will be Roger's second time in the federal pokey, no?

[Disilloosianed]

Yes, later in that thread, another LHer points this out. Roger explains that those were his "pre-CtC" years.

[Demosthenes]

Sorry about that. I haven't actually read LostHorizons in more than a year. (I kind of lose interest once the target is painted...)

Roger was sentenced to 15 months in 1998. He's toast as a repeat offender.

Which only goes to show, any port in a tax protester's storm. The first theory was an abysmal failure; hey, try CtC. Which is exactly why none of them are ever going to admit that they actually have to pay tax under any theory. They don't believe the nonsense either.....

[grixit]

That docket will make an interesting exhibit at the sentencing hearing for the current case.



You know, tps should take a tip from street gangs and get special tattoos to indicate how much time they've spent inside.

But a crying man in the fetal position is too hard to tattoo.....

IMF Research. As I said in my post "past history" before CTC. I have been in this for over 20 years, it has cost me 2 marriages and a family. Who's side are you on?

What ever happened to the old page of linked emoticons? This would be a perfect spot for the one that illustrates head vs. brick wall.

[Joey Smith]

He will get more than 3 months this time. As a repeat offender, he's probably looking at 3-5 years, minimum.

As others have said, this guy is toast: He doesn't even have a 1 in 100,000 chance of winning.

Jury retired at 3:45 p.m. Jury returned verdict at 4:15 p.m.

The only question is whether or not it will take less than 30 minutes to convict this time around.

The only question is whether or not it will take less than 30 minutes to convict this time around.

Actually, there is one more question: whether the entire trial (including jury selection, evidence, argument, lunch and deliberations) will make it to seven hours.

Man I have missed that emoticon. Its very useful on this forum. Sometimes its the only response needed. Any chance of that emoticon being added in?

Sure, he lost his wives, his kids, three months of his life, his dignity, etc........

But he is no longer enslaved!

I've got a few CTC hearings in the next month. I'll never understand why guys make their families go through this. I just want to shake them and wake them up out of their TP trance. Life doesn't have to suck, it can be really fun! Why can't TPs understand this?

[webhick]

But he is no longer enslaved!

You'd figure he'd be happy about not being enslaved to the wives and kids anymore.

Do these people ever consider that they didn't lose the families because of the TPing, but because of deficits in their own personalities? Of course not. The wives left him and the kids won't talk to him because he's taking up "the good fight" not because he drinks and hits them on occasion. I'm not saying he does those things, but until the wives and kids say why they left, I don't believe that it was justthe TPing. Okay, I can see the first wife leaving him because of it...but the second one must have known about it when she married him.

[webhick]

I don't think the guy is going to get any support from the CtC crowd. He's been told to keep his mouth shut about it publicly (5th Amendment). One CtCer went so far as to say that it's not a good case to support. And Pete is ignoring the situation.

IIRC, John has claimed that CtC has never been tried in court (at least to his satisfaction) - even with Pete's legal battles. Now that it's about to be tried...it's disturbing to see their reaction. If (more likely when) this guy loses the case, it's going to damage the CtC movement. You'd think they'd be rallying support to give this guy every chance to win.

Of course, they're probably just distancing themselves so that when he loses, they can claim that it wasn't CtC - if it was, they would have helped him.
