From some of the comments I've read here, it appears that not everyone knows what Knoll did. The federal government charges an 18.5 cent tax on every gallon of gasoline sold in the US. If the gas is sold for off road use, the seller can file to have the 18.5 cent tax refunded. Knoll filed false reports to claim the refunds and received the payments. When the government did a routine audit that they do for everyone who files, they caught him.

It has not taken this long for the government to catch Knoll. He got caught with the scheme in 2008 and it has taken until now for him to plead guilty. Along the way were competency hearings, not guilty pleas and other legal maneuvers to delay a trial.
