I think what is notable about this case vs other tax cheats that makes it less mccarthyism and more public interest. This is the head of one of the most prestigious universities chem department hiding over $500000 usd per year from being taxed and lied to the FBI.
Mccarthyism is making up BS on people about their supposed communist leanings and raking them over the coals in public sham hearings / blacklisting them from working (ie hollywood).
What makes it worse for the professor is that he took those funds from a country with which his own government has a very fraught relationship and whom is actively trying to espionage technology. Theres more to break on this i would wager but don't call it mccarthyism.
