Man Gives the IRS the Finger…Literally!
Normand Lariviere, of Olympia, WA, was charged with mailing a threat to injure IRS workers in Ogden, UT after he sent a package containing a fake bomb.
Lariviere previously sent the IRS a package in 2016 containing one of his severed fingers, a bullet and a marijuana joint.
The threats stem from Lariviere being laid off from his job as a civilian defense contractor in the 1990’s. Since that time he filed numerous grievances with federal agencies related to the Department of Defense, stating that he shouldn’t have to pay taxes because the government hadn’t satisfied his claims.
