Fun fact

Did you know that the infamous Chicago crime boss Al Capone – despite being suspected of everything from bootlegging to murder – was eventually put away on five charges of tax evasion? When you consider FBI agent Frank J. Wilson and his team of forensic accountants had to sift through almost two million documents before they were able to put together a compelling enough case to convict him, there’s no doubt Mr Capone could probably have done with hiring a better accountant.
