If you spend two years investigating _anyone_, chances are you can find a law they violated sometime in their life.

What a strangely disingenuous comment. If the FBI investigated me for two years they wouldn't be able to charge me with high profile financial crimes lol. How absurd.

You're 100% certain you've complied with all 70,000 pages of federal tax law and regulations? You've paid sales or use tax on all of your online purchases?

I said "high profile financial crimes" not obscure and rarely enforced legal technicalities.
