Is Martha Boneta being targeted by the IRS?

If the reporting in this Daily Caller piece on Martha Boneta’s struggles with the IRS is even remotely correct, there’s something rotten, and downright despicable, in Fauquier county government:

The Inspector General of the U.S. Treasury Department is investigating whether an environmental group pressured the Internal Revenue Service into auditing a Virginia farmer and tea partier, according to attorneys, policy analysts and other sources familiar with the case.

But the investigation has not discouraged IRS auditors, who are expanding their audit of Martha Boneta in what has become a high-profile dispute over property rights.

Boneta told The Daily Caller in an interview that she has been asked to submit “reams and reams” of new information in addition to the original audit request.

Boneta said that she and her legal representatives recently met with a special agent of the U.S. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Information (TIGTA) “on two separate days, for almost five hours.”

While Boneta would not comment on the details of the meeting, she did say the “close coordination and collusion” between the Piedmont Environmental Council (PEC) and the Fauquier County government in Virginia could become central to the ongoing investigation. The meetings with the special agent took place earlier this summer and with witnesses as recently as this past week.

Go read the whole thing, and decide for yourself whether the Piedmont Environmental Council sicced the IRS on Boneta. And then ask yourself why Fauquier county supervisor — and former PEC board member — Peter Schwartz decided to double down on the nastiness:

At one point, Peter Schwartz — a county supervisor who previously served as a PEC board member — discussed having Boneta’s mortgage called in with Phillip Thomas, a real estate mogul who previously owned the land that includes Boneta’s farm.

In his correspondence, Schwartz made it clear that county officials did not approve of how Boneta used her property. In response to Schwartz, Thomas’s law firm then sent a letter to Boneta’s mortgage company requesting Boneta’s mortgage be called in or sold.

Tar and feathers seems like a reasonable response to such skullduggery.
