[PBRSTREETGANG]

They’ve finally gotten around to sentencing him for doing White Men Can’t Jump and The Money Train with Woody Harrelson?

So much for Blade 4...

[Red Badger]

Yes a real jail with real bad guys...........don’t drop the soap, WES............

[bshomoic]

he’d go to jail. the rule is if you plead guilty, they hit you with a big fine that the gubment will spend wisely on our behalf, and a slap on the wrist. if you exercise your right to a jury, you go to jail.

[Shryke]

Awesome. I am so sick to friggin' death of Britney, and Paris, and all the other losers in the news.

THIS guy is my kinda garbage celebrity news.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Yep, the timing is obvious.

[AbeKrieger]

But you still pay them. I hate people who think their better than everyone else, after listening to his dumb *ss excuses he deserves to share a cell with whoever was counseling him.

Wonder how many of the guys in prison have seen Snipes' role in "To Wong Foo...."?

Always bet on Blacula.

[Red Badger]

Makes me wonder about Wes......and Swayze. I know about the others........

[blackdog]

Leonna Helmsley's "only the little people pay taxes" sideshow I see every year.

The IRS should be back billed by every media outlet for the past twenty years for free advertising.

so he could actually go to the federal jail ?

Oh yeah. He's in deep kim-chee...

Wesley Snipes clasps his hands together as he arrives at the U.S. Federal Court to stand trial for conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government and filing a false claim for a $7 million refund, in Ocala, Florida, January 14, 2008. Rather than file tax returns on an estimated $38 million in income, Snipes flooded the U.S. tax agency with correspondence that his lawyer admitted on Tuesday was sometimes "kooky, crazy and loony.
