From the Annals of Insanity – In 2010, a disgruntled taxpayer (who remains nameless under Paradise in Hell corporate policy) deliberately crashed his Piper Dakota airplane into Building I of the Echelon office complex in Austin. The delusional pilot was killed along with IRS manager Vernon Hunter age 68). The attack injured 13 other people including 2 with serious injuries. The office building housed an IRS field office, state and federal agencies and private businesses. The crazed pilot had previously posted a suicide note referring to “greed”, “insanity”, and the IRS on his business website. He is also believed to have set fire to his North Austin home that morning. He had a long history of tax problems mostly stemming from failure to file state tax returns. The attack accomplished nothing but did result in the IRS spending almost $40 million to improve security at its offices around the country.
