On December 17, 1986, pursuant to a search warrant,
a task force of FBI agents and Massachusetts State police
officers conducted a search of Heller's Cafe. The search
warrant authorized the task force to search for evidence
of unlawful gambling, loan-sharking, distribution of
narcotics, money laundering, and failure to file CTR's.
During the course of the search, the agents seized drugs,
weapons, records of M.L. Associates, records of bookmaking
activities, and money in the aggregate amount of $125,376,
consisting of a $20,000 cashier's check and currency of
$105,376 found in a safe in the enclosed area. Mr. London
was present when Federal agents searched Heller's Cafe.
On April 11, 1990, Mr. London was indicted by a
Federal grand jury for two counts of income tax evasion
in violation of section 7201. The grand jury returned
superseding indictments on May 10, 1990, and on
September 5, 1991. The second superseding indictment
charged Mr. London with the following violations of the
law:
