To the Hooscow

So the Judge told Dr. Bulb that until he could find his money, he could sit in jail. Dr. Bulb was handcuffed, strip searched and locked up in the local jail. In the meantime, Luigi called the lawyer in Nevis and reported the situation. The lawyer in Nevis was able to finally get some information about the account and Luigi reported that to the Trustee. Dr. Bulb was released. But that release was short-lived, the Judge then ordered him held until the money was repatriated. Dr. Bulb spent a week in prison this time. Once the money came in, much to Dr. Bulb’s surprise, it was about 20% higher than when he started. The I.R.S. and the state then amended their filed claims for unpaid taxes including fraud penalties. This meant that the taxes were about 80% of the income earned. The Judge granted their amendment and then, proceeded to divvy up the money. At that point everything Dr. Bulb owned was taken except his house which was mortgaged past the hilt. His reputation suffered, his income was lower, he had been incarcerated and suffered every indignity that such an ordeal offered, and now was penniless.
