The IRS has a proven track record of shooting first and asking questions later. It is the only division of the government where the person or business is considered guilty as charged and the burden of proof is on the accused to PROVE that the IRS isn't correct.
Anyone who has ever been on the wrong side of the IRS knows it's a gut-wrenching experience, and it's very expensive to prove yourself correct. Lawyers who specialize in IRS law are some of the most expensive per-hour lawyers in practice.
So just because the IRS goes on a fishing expedition against the Morse family does not mean that they are guilty of any wrong-doing.
I also tend to doubt that anyone who bought a home in TV was dealing with persons who resembled either Vito Corleone or Luca Brasi who had a gun to their ear making them "an offer they couldn't refuse".
