$51,000 (it is not clear from the story, but it appears it could be in cash) from a candy and cigarette business? Nice to know somebody is having a good year.

The convenience store biz is EXCELLENT in Lackawanna, eh? He likely was ringing up a lot of transactions on a phony cash register that didn't tally up for the taxing authorities of New York State. Way this scam works is you use an honest cash register some of the time and the scam register at other times. By now there are probably ways of hacking an electronic cash register so you can just flip a switch so some transactions get recorded and some don't.
Haven't you ever wondered why immigrants tend to gravitate towards "cash businesses"?
