For 33 years, veteran prosecutor Corey Smith pursued some of the biggest tax cheats in history, recovering literally billions of dollars for U.S. taxpayers. His career culminated with the Robert Brockman case, which is described in my book, Death, Taxes, and Turduckens.

Just over half received prison time, with an average sentence of only 16 months....Tax fraud prosecutions haven’t just declined, they’ve crashed, down nearly 50 percent from 2014 to 2023. That means nearly half a trillion dollars vanishes every year, and almost no one is held accountable.”
