FINDINGS OF FACT
Some of the facts have been stipulated and are so found.
The stipulated facts and accompanying exhibits are incorporated
into our findings by this reference. At the time the petition in
this case was filed, petitioner resided in Lompoc, California.
On October 21, 1987, petitioner walked into the Bank of
America in Sunnyvale, California (the Sunnyvale BoA) and rented
three safe deposit boxes (the three boxes). The first safe
deposit box was numbered 1 (box 1), the second, 6346E (box
6346E), and the third, 6348E (box 6348E). Petitioner filled each
of the boxes with short stacks of U.S. currency bound with rubber
bands.
Petitioner rented the three boxes in the name of Michael
Stark, and he used a phony Missouri driver's licence in that name
and a fictitious Social Security account number to verify his
identification. On November 5, 1987, petitioner returned to the
Sunnyvale BoA with a woman identified as Laura Dixon to add her
as co-renter on the boxes.
In 1987, petitioner used the phony Michael Stark
identification and fictitious Social Security account numbers to
rent safe deposit boxes at three banks in San Jose, California,
(the San Jose banks) as follows:
