BREAKING: Actor Wesley Snipes has been sentenced to three years in prison/jail for tax evasion (failing to file tax returns).

Snipes was convicted of three misdemeanor charges for not filing his taxes.

The maximum sentence allowed under law is 3 years. But how could Wes get the max sentence?

Snipes had several character witness letters written by friends, including Woody Harrelson and Denzel Washington.

Anytime you have perennial pothead Woody Harrelson as a character witness you know you aren’t going to get any favors when it comes to sentencing.  Even the great Denzel Washington is not going to cancel out Woody.
