On November 18, 2024, Charles Montgomery Burns was arrested for laundering profits from illicit art sales through Bitcoin. The scheme involved Krusty the Clown selling "paintings" made with pie fillings and seltzer, with Burns funneling millions into untraceable crypto accounts. A tip-off came when Burns mislabeled a Bitcoin transfer as "Suspicious Art Profits." During a sting, he was caught hiding ledgers in a hollowed-out Picasso replica. Both face charges of money laundering and art forgery.
