Blade star Wesley Snipes has been acquitted of Federal tax fraud and conspiracy charges but convicted him of three misdemeanor counts of failing to file tax. Snipes and two co-defendants were indicted in 2006 for tax fraud and conspiracy.
The actor used tax protest arguments long rejected by courts but still continuing to find adherents. For example, Snipes said the IRS’ own code meant no citizen had to pay taxes on income earned in this country, and the agency had no legal authority to collect wages anyway, because it is not a proper government entity.
