IRS Pays Off Father's War on Drugs
A Kansas father, Sherman Sampson, won a Tax Court ruling allowing nearly $38,000 in deductions for funds spent fighting drug abuse in his community. The IRS had disallowed the deduction, saying the money served private motives, but Judge William A. Goffe found Sampson acted to prevent drug abuse affecting other families. The decision noted his efforts included TIP lines, undercover buys, and collaboration with state and local law enforcement, while some substantiation issues were upheld.
