I’ve heard this is a common play when running shady businesses. Keep going until you get shut down or someone gets sent to jail, shuffle the assets around, reform the business with a different family member running it. Maybe someone serves some jail time but it’s ok, the family will take care of him once he’s out.

This is why fines and slaps on the wrist don’t work against “business” people. They will do whatever the fuck they want until real consequences arrive, but since real consequences no longer really exist for them, they’re just criminals all the time.

Well it sounds pretty organised and it also sounds like crime.
