Wesley Snipes most recently famous for playing the character Blade, thought he could get away with not paying his income tax. And he did for a few years. But the US Government may be slow, but they always get their money!
You see, back in February, Wes was convicted on three misdemeanor charges for not filing his taxes.
Well, yesterday, Wes got three years in prison for it. Oh and he still had to pay.
"Snipes' long prison sentence should send a loud and crystal clear message to all tax defiers that if they engage in similar tax defier conduct, they face joining him and his co-defendants ... as inmates in prison."
- Nathan J. Hochman, Assistant Attorney General of the Justice Department's Tax Division
