Snipes Lands Another Big Bill

Posted by KPope

The US government has sent Wesley Snipes a bill for $200,000 to recoup costs for legal fees to convict him on tax evasion chargers. Bad, bad news, as the actor already owes 3 million in unpaid taxes + was handed a 3 year sentence in April after officials found him guilty of not paying taxes over the past 5 years. Our government states the bill relates to  to the huge amount of administration work that went into sorting out Snipes’ financial records. Snipes will also have to pay the expense costs of the 13 key witnesses who had to testify at his trial. Wesley is currently free on bail while his defense team works to overturn his convictions.

Now you talk about some bad luck and being irresponsible…PEOPLE, please file and pay your taxes or you will end up in the same boat as Nino Brown.
