Don't forget to pay your taxes even if you work out of the country!

Maybe using Woody Harrelson as a character witness was a bad move.

The Beeb said it this way:

But prosecutors said an example should be set because of Snipes' fame.

If I'm on a jury I seriously consider going the other way if prosecutors bring that sort of bull*feces*.  He deserves what he deserves.  His fame should have nothing to do with it.

But he's a dip*feces*, that's for sure.

he went to great lengths to not pay his taxes, not like he just forgot. ::)

Snipes maintained in a years-long battle with the IRS he did not have to pay taxes, using fringe arguments common to "tax protesters" who say the government has no legal right to collect. After joining Kahn's group, the government said Snipes instructed his employees to stop paying their own taxes and sought $11 million in 1996 and 1997 taxes he legally paid.
