It appears the man has not let up, and is seeking to imprison Wesley Snipes for three years! We get wind of this ridiculous news thanks to the justice caves of Yahoo:
Federal prosecutors say actor Wesley Snipes should serve the maximum possible penalty for failing to file a tax return. Prosecutors say in court documents filed Monday that Snipes’ case “cries out” for him to serve the maximum, which is up to three years in prison.
The “Blade” star’s lawyer says he has not reviewed the documents and will respond with a pre-sentencing memorandum of his own. Snipes, 45, was convicted in February of failing to file a tax return. He was acquitted of more serious tax fraud and conspiracy charges. He’s set to be sentenced April 24.
These federal prosecutors can go fuck their piss-holes with a rusty nail! Wesley Snipes simply neglected to file his taxes and should receive the minimum penalty. He should be sentenced to baking 4 dozen cup cakes for a seniors center and singing a charity song with Elton John.
Wesley Snipes is innocent and people need to leave well enough alone. We need Wesley Snipes to star in action films and teach us life lessons on the silver screen.
If he goes to jail I am going to send a letter to the White House every week till he is free.
Wesley Snipes, we support you and wish you luck.

freedom to facism was a great documentary. I just read 2 min. ago that wesley snipes did get the maximum 3 years. This just is sickning to me. It shows how corrupt our system is and I wish the man the best of luck. I praise him for standing up against and evil and corrupt system of government(IRS). I wonder where our future is headed.
Appreciate the response, John. Well said. Thanks.
What ever happened with the Movie Blog people doing movie commentaries? I LOVE the few that were done and was hoping for more. Possibly a Jurassic Park trilogy set or something, but that’s just wishful thinking on my part, lol.
Damn straight Dougie. Dude, you must do a solo commentary for Blade or Blade II or something.
Wow I’ve never seen a guy like Robert crash a post like that.
Robert how does a film have 100 PAs. (Production assistants)? Most film have a min 5 PA’s to a big film that could have more locations out of the country could have more than 20.
I film this secret prob only has 4 PA’s. (IMO). Most of the PA’s find out what’s going to happen in the film. Robert, got any info..??
You prob meant 100 extras right????
Tell us about the set Robert was it at WB in Burbank?
Snipes is a good man he should not go to jail for some bull shit.
And Doug,
I forgot to mention. We probably have 0% – 0.2% poverty. You’ll never see beggars asking for change in this country
Hey Doug,
I live in Brunei. Don’t worry if you’ve never heard of it before. Probably 90% of the world’s population has never even heard of it.
Are you in the Bahamas Nazz?
Oops sorry, I’m actually lying. We do pay taxes for our vehicles, but that’s it.
It’s a good thing where I come from we never pay taxes but still have free health, free education and free dental.
Hey Robert,
No, we don’t have any “beef” with Dark Knight at all. I always mention it as one of the films I’m really looking forward to this summer. HOWEVER…
There’s hans’t been any real news about in a while. I refuse to post about the 10,000 stupid “viral” marketing things they do, and all that “they might cut Ledgers scenes” stuff was never true, and we all knew it. It was just another excuse for people to talk about Ledger and his horrible tragedy.
When there is something real to talk about, we’ll talk about it for sure.
People need to get out of Snipe’s grill. People like Paris Hilton needs this harassment.
I will have to check that out !!
In any case the IRS is a criminal organization. If you haven’t seen Freedom to Fascism (about the US Income Tax) you should go watch it on google video. I know this is a MOVIE blog and not a political blog. But maybe if people ask why this is happening to a big movie star (since no one cares when it is the little guy) it will wake some people up.
In any case, Freedom to Fascism is a documentary, so I am talking about movies anyway…
Actually I got to work as one of like 100 pas on the set last summer. I am just so excited for it! It is so unusual, and is gonna be something special. Just wondering why you guys are keeping it in the dark? – no pun intended!
We have no such beef Robert.
Do you work for a studio or are you just an enthusiast?
You sound like you are shillin’ for your supper.
Also, do you guys have a beef with someone in The Dark Knight production camp? BEcause there has been so much news for the Dark Knight recently that you guys have not even reported. New leaked pictures of The Joker, possibly cutting scenes of the Joker, TDK’s runtime which is the news of the day. You guys need to get with it because you have fans, and those fans also happen to be fans of the most anticipated movie in America: The Dark Knight. Get with it!!!!
Why the lack of Dark Knight coverage???? It is gonna be the best movie of the year! Academy award nominee (Screenplay) Chris Nolan writing and Directing. Academy award nominee (story/screenplay) Jonathan Nolan co-writing. Academy Award nominated cinematographer Wally Pfister lensing the pic. Christian Bale starring. Golden Globe nominee Maggie Gyllenhaal., Golden Globe nom. Aaron Eckhart, Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman, Academy Award Winner Michael Caine, Academy award nominee Heath Ledger, Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts, Gary Oldman, Anthony Michael Hall, William Fitchner, Michael Jai White, Senator Leahy (cameo). This movie is packed with talent! None of the other movies this summer have this much talent!
I agree Doug, but life lessons. LMAO.
