No Really. $20,000,000. That’s 2 million movie tickets. 200,000 dinners for two at Ray’s the Steaks. Twenty houses in North Arlington or the Palisades. A minor baseball franchise.
That’s what four DC Tax and Revenue Employees stole from the city. And that’s just what they’ve found so far. The way they did it? Real (fake) tax rebate checks from the DC Treasury given to friends and family cashed.

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
