>with his dad being dead
--
For those unaware his father died in Prison. Why was he in Prison? Well the son committed the crime in the house the father owned. His father died 8 years into a 10 year prison sentence. Cruel.

I read that Timothy was selling LSD to a DEA agent so this implies the entire case was federal? Do the feds still act this way in charging the homeowner instead of "merely" moving to seize the house?
> In May of 1992, Tyler sold pot and LSD to a longtime friend who was really a police informant. His father, who was also named Timothy and had a fireworks business in Florida, helped out with the deal and was charged along with his son. ... His father, who had a prior pot charge from 1969, got 10 years, Tyler-Stoafer told me. He had heart trouble and died in prison when he was 53, after serving 8 years in prison. http://www.businessinsider.com/timothy-tylers-mandatory-mini...
I also found this:
>Some packages with LSD were mailed to Tim’s father’s address, implicating him in the case as well. https://www.headcount.org/this-peaceful-deadhead-will-die-in...
If this is the story I recall he was mailing it via USPS and they letters originated from the house the father owned. However, this is a fuzzy memory from some time back.
