Wesley Snipes Gets Three-year Sentence For Tax Evasion
April 25th, 2008Movie star will s
erve prison time for tax conviction
Despite letters of support from Denzel Washington and Woody Harrelson, among others, Wesley Snipes is headed to prison. A judge on Thursday sentenced the actor to three years of federal time for failing to file his taxes for five years. Washington and Harrelson, who’ve both co-starred with Snipes in films, urged mercy from the court. TV judges Greg Mathis and Joe Brown also expressed support, with Brown calling Snipes “one of those rare individuals possessed of an extremely developed social conscience.” Snipes will not begin serving his sentence immediately. The court says he’ll be allowed to enter a facility near his New Jersey home.

Wesley should have been more responsible. Handle your business or it will handle you. However I believe the courts were to severe and something lighter could have been applied.
OH Please

“lets get him” they say
three years is a lot for just that
give the black man a break
WHO CARES HE AINT WORRIED BOUT US SOMEONE WHO WILL JUST COME RIGHT OUT AND DISS BLACK WOMAN!!!!!!!! WHAT YOU THINK UR MAMA IS WES. HE SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT BOUT THAT BEFORE TRYING TO PLAY UNCLE SAM HE SHOULD HAVE GOT A LOT MORE TIME. INSTEAD OF TRYING TO BE THE KING OF NEW YORK HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TRYING TO HELP SOME OF THESE PARENTS. DONT CRY FOR HIM CAUSE HE GOING TO HAVE THE MARTHA STEWART SUITE FOR A BLACK MAN F*** W.S.

IT IS SO SAD HOW MANY HATER’S OUT THERE, IF IT HAPPEN TO SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU, WOULD FEEL DIFFERENTLY. MY PEOPLE HAVE TO REALIZE JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE MONEY DON’T MEAN A THING, NOTHING HAS CHANGE, ALWAYS REMEMBER WHO’S IN CHARGE: IT APPEAR THINGS HAVE CHANGE BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE IT HAS NOT. WESLEY YOU HAVE TO LEARN ANYONE WHO GIVES YOU ADVICE ON HOW BEAT THE MAN AT HIS OWN GAME; PLEASE QUESTION IT. YOU HAVE MADE A MISTAKE, GOD WILL FORGIVE YOU! KEEP YOUR HEAD UP. THIS JUST ANOTHER WAY OF KEEPING MY PEOPLE DOWN. TOO BAD YOU WERE NOT WHITE YOU WOLD HAVEN’T GOT OFF EASY!
IN THE LAST LINE IT SHOULD’VE SAID IF YOU WERE WHITE YOU WOULD’VE GOT OFF EASY. ALWAYS REMEMBER AS LONG AS YOU DO WHAT THE MAN WANT TO DO YOU WILL ALWAYS BE ALRIGHT.
Well I have to say sometime the law is for certain people. When we look at the insider trading well it makes people wonder insider trading is a felony punishable by preson time Wesley got three years, and the insider trading lady only got a few months, go figure.
He doesn’t care very much for black women, maybe he remember know that he is black now. This was to let him know,that he is still black.
I think he should realize that he is still black. No matter how much your brain washed by fame, in the end your still black and the system will remind you if you dont remind yourself..
why they did’nt just take the fine and leave him alone
Why don’t he call one of his white women to bail him out…
There can never be a sweet taste, its all your fault Wesley. We are moving on and you got stuck.
I guess I am torn about the way I feel. I understand that little spoiled white girls are getting away with serious crimes, but we as black people need to step away from that and live the way we were raised. I have Lupus and I go to work everyday, some days in so much pain that I want to just sit down and give up but I know I have responsibilities to maintain my family. Do I believe Mr. Snipes should go to jail for 3 years? If it had been you are I we would have gone to jail so why not him? I have read about stars making it big and their families are still living in poverty. How is that right. We have all had pain and heartache in our life. Yes I do Pray for Mr. Snipes but just because you are rich does not mean you don’t have to follow the law. Maybe when we start respecting and understand who we are as a people maybe things will change. Then and only then will we be able to challenged why little white girls get off and we end up doing time. tme.
WHY DO SELFISH IGNORANT PEOPLE ALWAYS GOT TO THROW THE RACE CARD IN THERE? SO WHAT IF WESLEY PREFERS WHITE WOMEN. SOME MEN PREFER ASIAN WOMEN ARE THEY DISCRIMINATED AGAINST? NO. ARE POLISH MEN SCORNED UPON FOR FALLING IN LOVE WITH ITALIANS, OR GERMANS? NO. I AM A 37 YEAR OLD WHITE WOMAN MARRIED AND MADLY IN LOVE WITH A BLACK MAN WHO JUST HAPPENS TO BE VERY DARK SKINNED. SO WHAT. LOVE IS LOVE AND NO ONE CAN CONTROL THE WAY THEIR HEART FEELS OR RESPONDS TO ANOTHER HEART. SOULS HAVE NO COLOR. WE ALL BLEED RED. WE ALL BREATH THE SAME AIR, AND WERE CREATED BY THE SAME GOD. GET A GRIP AND GET IT TOGETHER. WE ARE OF THE HUMAN RACE. STOP LETTING THE GOVERNMENT LEAD HOW YOU THINK.
THERE ARE TOO MANY PREJUDICE PEOPLE OUT THERE. WHITE PEOPLE HATING BLACK PEOPLE. BLACK PEOPLE HATING WHITE PEOPLE. ITALIAN PEOPLE HATING EVERYONE. MAYBE IF THERE WAS A BLACK WOMAN OUT THERE WHO WAS WORTHY OF WESLEYS LOVE AND AFFECTION HE WOULDN’T HAVE TO COME TO THE LIGHTER SIDE OF GREY. NOT SAYING THERE ISN’T ANY BLACK WOMEN OUT THERE WORTHY OF A BLACK MANS LOVE, BUT THE RIGHT ONE HASN’T COME IN WESLEYS PATH. IT SHOULDN’T BE ABOUT COLOR IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT CHARACTER, MORALS, SENSE OF SELF WORTH, AND PERSONALITY. YA’LL BLACK WOMEN OUT THERE WHO HATE A BROTHA FOR DOING A SO CALLED UNCLE TOM. THINK. WHY? WHAT LEAD THAT PERSON IN THAT DIRECTION. BE MORE MATURE ABOUT YOUR JUDGEMENTS. PLUS YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW HIM. WHAT DO YOU CARE.
OK, This is it. He did something wrong and he gets punished. I think once your wrong you should face the consequences. 5 million = 3 years, that sounds reasonable. If he was able to pay it back then i’m sure they would let. The I.R.S. never refuse money unless its a ridiculous amount.
no one here can spell.
Amerikkka and the West blows the world apart and they dont get held accountable but when Spike Lee does not pay taxes hes gotta go to prison
