Accepted. Now to get back to the debate.
In your experience, would the FBI deposit this money in a bank for safekeeping? Would they insist that it be kept as a unit in the bank safe or simply as a cash deposit.
The reason I ask this is because if it was to be kept as a unit, then the owner would be able to show proof that this was saved over a time span of many years. This could be done by examining the serial numbers on the bills and the dates they were printed. A forty year span indicates, to me, that the savings took place over forty years. That, to me, indicates the money isn’t drug related or a bank robbery, or some other criminal act. I am certain that the IRS would be first in line with their greedy palms open though. The there would be another judge that needs convincing and another round of attornies to pay.
If the deposit was as a cash deposit, then that proof would disappear because the bank would use this cash for normal business.
Anyway I look at it, this guy is going to be screwed, blued and tatooed by our government, because he didn’t trust the banking system.
