Denzel and Other Hollywood Heavyweights Show Support For Snipes
Via OCALA:
Denzel Washington compares Wesley Snipes to a mighty oak tree.
Woody Harrelson views Snipes as a citizen of the world.
Judge Joe Brown casts Snipes as a life traveler serving his fellow man.
It seems hard to believe that a two-fisted, sexy, gun-toting Hollywood action star sounds like a cross between Gandhi and the Mother Teresa.
But, sometimes, that’s what it takes to beat doing hard time for a federal tax rap.
Thursday is the first day of the rest of Snipes’ legal life, and he needs enough character references to impress Senior U.S. District Judge William Terrell Hodges into going easy. An Ocala jury in February found the famed actor guilty of three counts of willfully failing to file tax returns. Snipes faces up to three years in federal prison and $5 million or more in fines.
I’m just not sure what “oak trees” or being a “citizen of the world” has to do with tax evasion. Wesley Snipes is a multi-millionaire who flat out refused to pay taxes and even ripped off the government. He’s a greedy SOB who deserves to do some prison time.
