      Don’t forget to pay taxes on your criminal gains! Otherwise you’ll get the double hit from the IRS.

      No but seriously, you gotta declare any criminal income you take in. Surprisingly you can apparently also take deductions on that income too when applicable. See the case, commissioner vs tellier, where someone deducted their legal fees defending their criminal activities from their criminal income in their tax return.
