A resident of Northern Michigan is under investigation for alleged tax fraud linked to an underground cannabis business.
In a recent announcement, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel revealed charges against John Cunningham, a 55-year-old resident of Traverse City, for filing false or fraudulent income tax returns. The charges are linked to a "black market" marijuana operation uncovered by the Michigan State Police.
The operation, which spanned several buildings in Grand Traverse County, led to the confiscation of significant assets. Michigan State Police confiscated more than 230 pounds of processed marijuana, $100,000 in cash, 134 marijuana plants, two vehicles, and six Rolex watches valued at over $100,000 from Cunningham's home.
The investigation, conducted by the Michigan State Police's Marijuana and Tobacco Investigations Section, alleges that Cunningham collected income from the "black market" marijuana operation but failed to file taxes in 2021 and 2022.
However, it is important to note that there is no publicly available information linking Joseph Buczek, the digital content and promotion manager in Detroit, to the Traverse City operation.
John Cunningham was arraigned on two counts of filing a false or fraudulent income tax return. The case is ongoing, and further details will be released as the investigation progresses.
