ABC News is reporting that Irwin Schiff, convicted of numerous charges in Las Vegas and facing 43 years in prison and fines of over $3 million for telling clients that there is no such thing as an income tax, is mentally ill. That’s according to court documents. Psychiatrists apparently believe that mental illness—suicidal depression, bipolar mental disorder, paranoia and delusions—made him tell people that you didn’t have to pay income tax. Schiff is currently 77 years of age.
Of course, if the Court or the prosecution (the United States) looks at his website, they may get other ideas. For someone convicted to continue to say
“Since the income tax was repealed in 1954 when Congress adopted the 1954 Code, it is clear that for 50 years federal judges in conspiracy with U. S. Department of Injustice prosecutors have been illegally and criminally prosecuting people for crimes that do not exist in connection with a tax that nobody owes.”
And you can see what his website says about himself here.
Mentally ill or not, it’s likely we’ve heard the last from Mr. Schiff. He’s likely to spend the rest of his days in either a psychiatric hospital or the geriatric wing of a federal institution.
