A nephew of Babe Ruth (so the man says), also named George Herman Ruth, was convicted on one count of conspiracy to file false tax claims and 60 counts of filing false tax claims.
According to an AP report, Ruth did this, along with co-conspirator William Pilkey, while he was already in Federal prison for mail fraud.
They were charged with filling 178 false individual income tax returns that contained fraudulent claims for refunds.
Prosecutors said the pair used their own names and names of others, including fellow inmates and former inmates, to file false returns for tax years 2000 through 2003. They mailed the returns to third parties, who then mailed them to various IRS service centers.
Somehow, I get the impression that this guy has some issues with obeying the law.
