I though I recalled seeing that's how she proved that the money was hers. She paid taxes on it.

On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Joseph F. Bataillon ordered the cash returned to the former topless dancer, saying the government's suspicions about a drug connection "left too many unanswered questions."
