13. "In closing arguments .. Hovind’s defense attorney
said the Pensacola evangelist was never notified by the IRS that he was violating a specific law by not withholding and paying employment taxes on workers ... Hovind also believes .. he and all employees of the theme park .. are exempt from paying taxes. Assistant U.S. Attorney .. said the case was not about religion but about paying taxes. In her closing .. she said that Kent Hovind was .. told numerous times .. that he must pay taxes .. Defense lawyers .. rested their case .. without presenting evidence or calling witnesses."

Summary of the "Hovind case at a glance" box at the link: The wife Hovind signed over a million dollars in checks made to CASH, often just below the $10K that triggers bank reporting; on some days, the wife visited the bank twice daily; and Hovind himself pulled out $70K one day, $35K as cash.
