This is interesting – a 92 year old lady who has sold suicide kits to about 1,300 people was prosecuted for failing to pay taxes on the sales. Here is the article in Accounting Today by Michael Cohn. Can you say Jack Kavorkian? Here is the article:

It is always wierd that people who have done a bunch of illiegal activities are almost always prosecuted for failure to pay taxes. I guess it is just easier to prove taxes weren’t paid rather than the activity was illegal. Remember, You can count on us to count for you!
