Since Wesley Snipes doesn't like Paying Taxes...He's ordered to Pa. prison for tax evasion

Uncle Sam is not playing with Wesley Snipes, and all his appeals to remain out on bail has fell on deaf ears at the U.S. Marshall's Office. Snipes was ordered Wednesday to voluntarily surrender at a federal prison in Pennsylvania next week to begin his three-year sentence for failing to pay taxes.

The U.S. Marshal's Office ordered Snipes to report by noon on Dec. 9 to the Federal Correctional Institution McKean in Lewis Run, Pa.

The 48-year-old star of the "Blade" trilogy was convicted in 2008 on three misdemeanor counts of willful failure to file income tax returns in 1999, 2000, and 2001. He was acquitted of five other charges, including felony tax fraud and conspiracy. The prison is a medium security facility with an adjacent satellite prison camp for minimum security offenders.
