Chapter 348: Chapter 208: Putting a Bounty on Taking Out David_2
While everyone was still lost in thought, the announcent of the final amount snapped many people back to reality, because $270 million was indeed a significantly large number.
It is worth noting that in the previous assessnt period, David had only collected $210 million in taxes, and here he was, just three days after taking office at the Western Suburb Branch, having already accounted for $270 million.
This achievent could definitely be classified as satisfactory among the satisfactory!
This ti, David not only managed to bring down the Rodrigozki Group, but also collected such a huge amount of tax revenue. His success in establishing authority as the new official was undeniable!
Washington D.C. Headquarters.
“I’ve been saying that we should have just appointed David during the last-to-last assessnt period instead of wasting ti with another round of competition. Had we allowed David to take office at the Western Suburb Branch earlier, maybe by now the taxes collected would have exceeded $1 billion!”
“You’re right, David should have been appointed during the previous assessnt period. Look, as soon as he took office, we recorded $270 million. If it were Brown or Bellamy, could they achieve that? Definitely not!”
“If it were Brown or Bellamy stepping in, forget about $270 million, they would be performing miracles even to collect $50 million in such a short span of three days.”
Seeing the total of $270 million US Dollars recorded, the high-level supporters of David imdiately found an opportunity to demonstrate their achievent.
Welton Heng Hanrahan and others, although itching with irritation, did not quite know how to retort for the mont.
Because not only did David handle this case with efficiency, but there was also a large sum of $270 million in tax revenue now accounted for. They themselves hardly believed that Brown or Bellamy would have been able to do the sa.
“Consultant Welton Heng, I think with the start of this $270 million, the President should be sowhat satisfied now, don’t you think?”
This ti, it was Obadiah who spoke up. Although he seed calm and composed on the surface, there was a hint of triumph in his words.
After all, David’s appointnt had co with his support, and now that David had perford so well upon taking office, so credit naturally went to him.
“Perhaps. I have official duties to attend to and must take my leave.”
Unable to bear the sight of these people gloating, Welton Heng left these words behind and promptly exited the room.
At the courtroom, with Nicola announcing the end of the trial, so of the invited socialites began to leave, including a livid Vivian.
The case had been so successfully closed, and such a large fund had been recovered, effectively announcing to Los Angeles and the entire IRS system his incompetence as the forr director. Therefore, he could no longer face staying there.
However, other people from the Los Angeles IRS system congratulated David one after another.
“Director David, congratulations on successfully closing this case.”
“Director David, $270 million in tax revenue is the largest sum we’ve seen in Los Angeles since the enactnt of the Black Tax Act. Congratulations.”
“Director David, you really live up to your reputation. Such a difficult case resolved so easily upon your assumption of office—impressive.”
Faced with everyone’s congratulations and complints, David did not show any signs of smugness, but nodded and responded to each one.
It was then that Simmons ca up to him and reminded him, “Director, it’s ti to go out and face the dia for interviews.”
It was then that David ca back to his senses. As the director of the Western Suburbs Branch, and also the spokesperson for the Black Tax Act, he indeed needed to ‘show off’ a bit in front of the dia after the case concluded.
With this in mind, he promptly excused himself from the IRS people and quickly took the elevator down to the first floor, stepping outside to signal that the dia could co over for interviews.
Upon seeing him erge, the dia imdiately sward around him and asked, “Director David, what is the outco of the case now?”
“The case has now concluded, and the result is that every mber of the drug trafficking group has been brought to justice; they have been sentenced to a total of 1,200 years in prison, and, additionally, we have seized their illicitly obtained funds amounting to $270 million and added them to the IRS treasury!”
As David finished speaking, the room burst into a buzz of surprise.
Viewers watching were also igniting real-ti heated discussions.
“OMG, has this drug trafficking group really been brought to justice? Director David has only been in office for three days, and he has already gathered enough evidence to convict them?”
“I think, couldn’t this be a forced conviction by the IRS? After all, it’s the IRS’s private court and judges…”
“Very likely, it’s said that once in the IRS court, they can turn black into white…”
Before the viewers could debate and question for too long, one of the dia outlets imdiately asked, “Director David, $270 million is indeed a staggering sum, but on behalf of netizens and viewers, I want to ask, as for their conviction, is your evidence… sufficient? Or is it…”
“There’s no need to doubt, and while the dia cannot enter to broadcast live according to the regulations, there were so many invited socialites there. You can interview so of them to find out.”
In fact, one of the reasons the IRS invites so many socialites to each trial is to silence the dia and the public, making the tax authority’s judgnts appear to be sowhat fairer.
