The second event was an investigation by the tax authorities
of Jeremiah Dogan’s financial affairs. They produced eighty-six
charges against him, relating to non-payment of taxes, which
could lead to a maximum of twenty-eight years in prison. After
much discussion, the government offered Dogan a deal. They
would not jail him for the tax avoidance if he gave evidence
against Sam Cayhall in a new trial of the Kramer case. Dogan
accepted the offer.
