New York Times article, but warning, defending lawyer is certain client has been set up. So these are all allegations ans may not shed any light on counterfeit cigarettes in the US. The alleged trail runs from China via an Indian reservation to Brooklyn. Or are there two separate trails? But high taxation as usual lies at the root of the problem.
Apparently there is no taxation on cigarettes sold on Indian reservations, nut sellers are supposed to tax non-Indians.... Is this another of those weird US law structures like the one that bans financial shenanigans everywhere...except for three states, so that the US has internal financial crime havens? Ah, federalism!
