THEY GOT THE MORTICIAN DEAD TO RIGHTS
August 21, 2008
They got Al Capone on tax charges. They also got a Northwest Iowa mortician that way. Mark Rhode of Kingsley reportedly pleaded guilty to theft and tax evasion charges in Plymouth County District Court:
Rohde was arrested in May for allegedly stealing more than $160,000 from Mauer-Johnson Funeral Home in Le Mars. Police said Rohde, who had recently opened his own funeral home in Kingsley, stole the money over five years while he was a percentage partner with Mauer-Johnson owner Joel Johnson.The plea agreement requires Rohde to pay Johnson $179,420.53 in restitution. He also agreed to pay $31,526.72 to the Iowa Department of Revenue.
Maybe next time he'll hit up the SBA for his start-up funding.
