Richard Hatch, the first winner of CBS's "Survivor," was charged today with failing to report his $1 million reality TV windfall to the Internal Revenue Service. The below two-count criminal information, unsealed today in U.S. District Court in Rhode Island, charges Hatch with filing a false 2000 tax return that omitted his seven-figure "Survivor" winnings. The nudity enthusiast, 43, is also charged with filing a false return for 2001 (he allegedly did not report $321,000 paid to him by a Boston radio station). If convicted of the felony charges, Hatch could face a maximum of five years in prison for each count and could be hit with a $250,000 fine. Hatch is scheduled to be arraigned on the charges in Providence federal court January 24. (6 pages)
Well, I'm sure he cannot pay it back. He spent it all at the San Fran bathhouses.
What a moron! Yeah, I'm sure the IRS is going to overlook a little thing like someone winning $1 million on national TV.
Survived the Island, voted out by the IRS.
He should cut a deal before his court date. The IRS loves to work with you, when they want their money. They'll cut him a good deal.
this guy used to be on a radio station around here and constantly trashed the US
he lasted a year i think
Doh!
I guess he thought no one would notice?

I am still totally convinced his win on the 1st Survivor was rigged, due to his "protected" status. It became a showcase and launching pad for his perversion, and caused me to not watch the show (or anything else he was involved with) after that...
He'll just cry discrimination and walk away from it.
Why is it that those we least desire to see nude, always are the first to want to be nude?
