"John Posgai, a self-employed truck mechanic from Morrisville, Pennsylvania, thought he was improving his land when he removed 7,000 used tires and rusting car parts left by a previous owner. Unfortunately, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) didn’t agree. For the 'crime' of cleaning up his own property without a federal permit, the EPA charged him with 41 violations of the Clean Water Act.

Posgai was sentenced to three years in a federal prison and fined $202,000. ------------------------------
