Court upholds tax evasion conviction of C R man
A three judge panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed Joseph Abodeelys conviction on two counts of federal tax evasion. The Cedar Rapids man faces a proposed two year prison term after a 1985 jury found he evaded about 14000 in 1978 and 1979 taxes. He has appealed arguing improper testimony about prostitution and gambling. The court ruled prostitution evidence clearly relevant and gambling evidence not prejudicial given Abodeely ran a bar and a brothel and engaged in Nevada gambling activities.
