Doesn’t the IRS typically freeze a person’s assets in cases like this? Seems he would have a tough time posting bond if that had happened.
Guess we’ll have to wait until Nov 2 to hear the rest of the story, unless he can post bail.
With this guys background you gotta know there are alot of masonry jars packed with cash somewhere. I understand he’s been spending alot of time in the OBX! Hmmm, I thought he had to stay in the state.
