Summary: A hilarious, entertaining, and illuminating compendium of the most bizarre ways you might become a federal criminal in America-from mailing a mongoose to selling Swiss cheese without enough holes-written and illustrated by the creator of the wildly popular @CrimeADay Twitter account. Have you ever clogged a toilet in a national forest' That could get you six months in federal prison. Written a letter to a pirate' You might be looking at three years in the slammer. Leaving the country with too many nickels, drinking a beer on a bicycle in a national park, or importing a pregnant polar bear are all very real crimes, and this riotously funny, ridiculously entertaining, and fully illustrated book shows how just about anyone can become-or may already be-a federal criminal. Whether you're a criminal defense lawyer or just a self-taught expert in outrageous offenses, How to Become a Federal Criminal is your wonderfully weird window into a criminally overlooked sector of American government.
