Wesley Snipes’ tax scandal.
Posted on April 24, 2008 
Wesley Snipes may face up to 3 years jail and a fine of $5 million when his sentence is passed later today. The prosecutors aimed to get Wesley the maximum penalty. He was to become the example of how tax evasion carried severe penalties.
Wesley has been convicted on 3 counts of failing to file federal income tax returns. He was charged with felony conspiracy counts for participating in a scheme that dismissed the legal foundation of the tax system.
The jury accepted Wesley’s defence that said that he was deceived by tax advisers. They acquitted him of some charges. He still has to face some of the remaining charges.

Update:
The judge has passed a sentence of 3 years’ imprisonment for Wesley. He was not fined. Wesley could choose his time and location of surrender to the authorities to start his prison term.

Three Years is a bit extreme. Probation and community service would have been appropriate. He should appeal based on the fact that this maximum sentence was NOT predicated on his misdemenor, but on the prosecutor and obviously the judge wanted to MAKE AN EXAMPLE of him. The American justice system never ceases to amaze. And often, disappoint.

Zionist “Justice” in the U.S. Crimocracy
Comparing Outcomes
Wesley Snipes vs IRS
and Jacob “Kobi” Alexander vs USA
Wesley Snipes, the famous black actor from Florida, has been sentenced to three years in prison.
As the Ocala Star Banner reported on April 24:
OCALA - Actor Wesley Snipes was sentenced shortly before 6 p.m. Thursday to the maximum term of three years in federal prison on three misdemeanor convictions of failure to file his income taxes.
Snipes was also sentenced to one year of supervised release. He was not taken into custody immediately. Instead, the Bureau of Prisons or the U.S. Marshal’s Service will notify him when and where to report.
The article reported that Snipes’ lawyers tried to pay five million dollars to the court, which the court said it could not accept.
The IRS, as should be expected, grabbed the money as soon as possible:
$5 MILLION
Early in the afternoon, lead Snipes attorney Daniel Meachum deposited three envelopes containing $5 million in checks with the judge.
It apparently was meant to show that Snipes accepted responsibility and was ready to pay his taxes.
Problem: The judge didn’t know what to do with it, and the prosecutors weren’t ready to accept that whopping sum of money. Hodges said he had “no authority on the part of the court to accept funds on behalf of the United States Treasury.”
Morris conferred with other at the prosecution table. “You honor,” he said, “I’m not authorized at this time to accept that money.”
“I’ll take the checks back,” said Meachum.
During a break, an IRS agent accepted the payment.
Without going into the details of the Snipes case and the people who advised him, I want to compare how the U.S. government went after Mr. Snipes and gave him the maximum sentence while they let the Israeli 9-11 criminal mastermind Jacob “Kobi” Alexander leave the country with hundreds of millions of dollars of ill-gotten gains.
Kobi Alexander is the former head of the Israeli companies Comverse and Odigo that played key roles in the false-flag terror of 9-11. Alexander was allowed to flee the United States with many hundreds of millions of dollars in illegal profits. I don’t know if he paid taxes on his criminal profits.

The prosecutors in the Snipes’ case said an example should be set because of his fame.
SET AN EXAMPLE
This is how criminal gangs work. The federal “crimocracy” wants to use the Snipes’ conviction to send a message to all Americans, black and white.
The message, plain and simple: Pay your taxes or we will throw you in the slammer.
Americans certainly got the message a long time ago but the crimocracy thinks we need reminding. This is how extortion rackets work.
Americans don’t pay income tax because they want to or because they want to pay for the services the government provides; they pay because they are very much afraid of what will happen if they don’t.
My friends, this is not a properly functioning social contract: this is criminal extortion. Americans know this in their hearts. We are being fleeced.
“I should pay for this kind of government?” is what I could imagine Wesley Snipes saying, if he had the chance to address the court – and the nation.
This is what I have been saying since September 11, 2001, after my family and I passed through New York City. We left the country shortly thereafter, in fear for our lives, in November. The IRS wants money from me as well, and they send me reminders.
I’m sorry. I don’t negotiate with criminals.
This is what my very astute and intelligent Estonian wife said when we were being maliciously prosecuted in Cook County courts. “We don’t negotiate with criminals.”
She is absolutely right. We don’t negotiate with terrorists or criminals.
We should pay for this kind of government? Would that not make us accomplices to crime?
Americans are forced to pay a quarter of their income, or more, for a government that can’t even run the trains or protect the nation. We pay a huge amount of money every year for a military that was utterly unable to defend the nation on 9-11. What kind of protection racket is this, anyway?
Meanwhile, the Israeli crook involved in the mass murder of 9-11 was allowed to get away to Israel, Namibia, and points unknown with hundreds of millions of ill-gotten dollars?
Comparing the drastically different outcomes of Snipes vs IRS and Kobi Alexander vs USA should go a long way to illustrate that there is simply no justice in a Zionist crimocracy.
Americans, black and white, pay with blood while Zionist Jews walk away with their money – and their country.
My fellow Americans, this is not justice; this is a crimocracy at work: Tricking your mind and stealing your money.
I am glad the government prosecuted - not persecuted - Wesley Snipes. He got a big break because he’s a black celebrity. The court only sentenced him to 3 years in prison. Snipes WAS part of a conspiracy to evade taxes, and he should have gotten 8-10 years. At least he got some real prison time, though, and Snipes is now a felon for life.
Wesley should not go to jail, its not that serious, Where is Bin Ladden, Tell Bush to free him so he can serve his death penalty, Then they can take some of that money he stole, and pay everybodys taxes. Well, after Nov. he’ll be kicked to the curb just like Bush….Bye Bush and good riddens.
