Money Is Caught, Hiding Money

One of the most famous quotes made by a white collar criminal in the midst of their downfall says, “Today, basically, on Wall Street, the big money is made by taking risks” (Top 9). The quote comes directly from historic Ponzi schemer himself, Bernie Madoff. Bernie Madoff, an infamous fraudster is well known for his astonishing $65 billion scam. Madoff, who is notoriously recognized by thousands of individuals makes for an attention-grabbing white collar criminal investigation. The shocking and unusual outcome of his case creates a thought provoking and captivating report. Most importantly his victims, in the thousands, encompasses and affects a vast population of America. Regrettably, countless victims today are still fighting for restoration, all while struggling to overcome from their losses. Overall, the scandalous Bernie Madoff case, damage/losses, outcome, and finally, the victims when combined creates an appealing white collar topic.

In the article “Money: The Real Truth about Money” by Gregg Easterbrook published In Time Magazine (2005), the author compares two different generation’s attitudes towards money, and how it affects their happiness. The author’s standing qualifies him to write and appeal this issue, he’s a contributing editor of The Atlantic and The Washington Monthly, and he also writes the Tuesday Morning Quarterback column for ESPN.com. Easterbrook’s primary audience appears to be middle class Americans however he draws a wider secondary audience’s attention. The author succeeded in convincing his readers through his rhetorical appeals, credible sources and his clever use of language.

Embezzlement seems to be a white collar crime that is victimless. However, when monies are embezzled from a non profit it affects all those involved especially those benefitting from the work of the nonprofit organization. I thought of our local community nonprofit arts foundation. They not only produce a full slate of shows each season, but also provide classes in painting, sculpting, drawing, acting, music, and dance. If they were defrauded in the amount of $93,000 it would affect educational programs and community outreach.

In the Internal Revenue Code, Reg. § 1.6015-2 discusses the protocol towards the liability of innocent spouses who filing jointly. Based on the this regulation, Elizabeth may make a request to the IRS to be relieved of joint and several liability for the amount of income that was understated on the 2014 tax return. In order to make this request, Elizabeth will have the burden of proof to ensure that she filed jointly in the year of the embezzlement, that the understatement of income occurred because of Gary, at the time of signing the 2014 tax return Elizabeth had no knowledge or reason to know about the embezzled funds, and it must be proven unjust for Elizabeth to hold liability for the understatement. Because Gary held all the embezzled funds in a bank account that Elizabeth had no prior knowledge of or reason to know of, she should be excused of the full understatement amount following her request to the IRS.

There were many great books presented on, but the best choice for inclusion into the APLAC curriculum is “Dark Money” by Jane Mayer.

Most people, when they hear the word “crime,” think about street crime or violent crime such as murder, rape, theft, or drugs.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation defines white collar crime as

Criminalisation is a central tenet of any credible anti-money laundering (AML) regime. The principal offences related to money laundering in Australia are contained in division 400 of the Criminal Code Act 1995(Cth) (the Criminal Code), which applies to both ‘proceeds’ and ‘instruments’ of crime. Recognising the wide array of channels used to launder funds, the provision is framed in broad terms and has been relied on to prosecute individuals in a variety of circumstances. This versatility has been acknowledged by the courts with the NSWCA in Milne v R asserting that ‘the money laundering offences in section 400 constitute a 21st century response to antisocial and criminal conduct commonly with international elements’. Through the remainder of this presentation I will outline the evolution and background of these offences, their elements, application, and

“Have you ever had a little brother or sister go through all of your belongings and find money and end up stealing it, knowing they were doing wrong. Just because this happened to you when you were younger does not mean that it can not happen to you when you are an adult. A Boston-area psychiatrist, for example, forfeited $1.3 million and was sentenced to several years in federal prison following his late-1990s conviction on 136 counts of mail fraud, money laundering and witness intimidation related to his fraudulent billing of several health insurers for psychiatric therapy sessions that never took place-using the names and insurance information of many people whom he actually had never met, let alone treated. (He also went so far as to write fictitious longhand session notes to ensure phony backup for his phony claims.)”(Webinar) Fraud is something that can happen on any level where a crime can be committed by a person, knowing they are doing it and still getting away with it or by accident knowing that their actions were innocuous, either way fraud is fraud and as sad as it is to say, it happens every day by millions of people, not just the IRS. “Few attempts have been made to actually see how

In the case of Abby Lee Miller, an article in Forbes Magazine was written about her for hiding around $755,492.85 her income. Abby Lee Miller is a famous dance studio owner from Pittsburg that is featured on the TLC show ‘Dance Moms’. Most recently, on June 27 2016, Ms. Miller was convicted guilty for bankruptcy fraud, concealment of bankruptcy assets, and false bankruptcy declaration. She was caught hiding income from appearing on ‘Dance Moms’ and making guest appearances on similar shows. She also was hiding her income from selling merchandise and from holding dance master classes. Miller was hiding this by having payments be payable to other parties that included her mother, and fake companies. By hiding her income, the dance studio owner was not paying the proper amount in income tax. To add to this charge, in June, Abby Lee Miller transported more the $10,000 into the United States from Australia without filling out the proper paper work for the Federal Government (Erb, 2016).

The kids for cash scandal unfurled in 2008 involving two judges of Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. President Judge Mark Ciavarella and Senior Judge Michael Conahan, were convicted of accepting money from two private profitable youth centers for their impactful rulings that would send juveniles to detention centers owned by Robert Mericle. “The judges convicted over 3000 children and received over 2.6 million dollars (May, R, Kids for Cash). At the age of 14, Hillary Transue created a fake Myspace page about her school’s principal as a joke. Charlie Balasavage was 14 when he was introduce to judge Ciavarella for riding a stolen scooter. Ed Kenzakoski was sent to juvenile detention for small violations. After

If the crooks were to be able to break into the bathroom then i could jump out the window because it's so low in an area and i could jump out safely.
