Wesley Snipes

is in trouble for going to a party in Dubai. A federal judge last year said Snipes could travel only to London and Bangkok for work on the movies "Gallowwalker" and "Chasing the Dragon."
"Defendant Snipes abused the Court's trust, and did so in a very public way," the U.S. Attorney's Office said in its motion. "For that reason alone, the Court should deny his current request for international travel." The federal prosecutors also asked that Snipes' bond be revoked pending the appeal.
Good luck with that Wes.

Wesley Snipes Gets The Max

Wesley Snipes was sentenced to 3 years in prison for willfully failing to file a tax return. He was not taken into custody today and will most likely serve his time at a federal prison near his home in New Jersey. Wes made a $5 million payment to the treasury on Thursday, but prosecutors called it a grandstanding move. "It''ll be a fraction of what he owes," said Assistant U.S. Attorney M. Scotland Morris, who made the argument for the government. Morris said a rough estimate of Snipes' outstanding tax liability, with penalties and interest, will exceed $20 million.

Wesley Snipes Calls Tax Audit Racially Motivated


Wesley Snipes says he is being unfairly targeted for tax evasion because he's black. No Wesley, you're being targeted because you claimed REFUNDS totaling nearly $12 million in 1996 and 1997 and failure to file returns from 1999 through 2004.

Fugitive Wesley Snipes Shooting Film In Namibia

Every since last week the magic question has been
"Where is Wesley Snipes?"
Well, Mr. "I Don't Pay My Taxes" turned up in
the South African country, Namibia. He's shooting
some kind of cowboy horror flick called Gallowwaker.
Namibia doesn't have an extradition treaty with the U.S.
so Wesley don't have to come back, if he don't want too, but
I wonder how he got in Namibia in the first place.
Remember last year when he was stopped in Johannesburg
using a fake South African passport? Isn't that against the law?
I'm starting to think this guy played one too many action heroes.
Anyway,
I've been trying to find out how Wes got in this tax trouble in
the first place. Was it an accountant who stole his money?
Mis-management of funds? Nope, none of that.
Wesley was involved with The Guilding Light of God.
Sounds like a church right? Not according to the IRS.
They raided the Guilding Light of God back in Feburary
2004. Apparently this group will help you fake your taxes
and Wesley Snipes is was one of their clients.

What Is It About British Women That Make Married American Celebrities Cheat?


Another married American celeb gets outed
by his British lover. First Cee-Lo, now Wesley Snipes.
Fran Murphy tells News of the World all about her six
day sex marathon with Wesley Snipes's dusty ass. She says
he poured chocolate all over her body and nibbled
on her neck while telling her,
"I'm being a Vampire."
But get this, Fran didn't even know what he was
talking about, because she's never watched any of his movies!
She did say he had a big stick, though.
