Actor Wesley Snipes filed no tax returns on $37.9 million in income from 1999 to 2004, even after the Internal Revenue Service told him in 2002 that he was under criminal investigation, according to documents filed ahead of Snipes’ tax fraud trial. . . .
During the six years he failed to file income tax returns, Snipes also tried to get fraudulent refunds from the IRS totaling $11.3 million for taxes he paid in 1996 and 1997, according to a timeline prepared by the prosecution.
Snipes on three occasions sent the U.S. Treasury what prosecutors called a “fictitious bill of exchange” totaling $14 million along with IRS payment vouchers, and at other times sent notices and a letter challenging the IRS’ authority to criminally investigate. . . .
He was dropped by his long-time tax adviser who first warned Snipes in a telephone call that he must pay taxes, according to the government timeline.
Prosecutors say that Snipes in 2000 joined a group called American Rights Litigators headed by Eddie Ray Kahn, a tax protester with convictions dating back to 1985, and paid Kahn a consulting fee of $2,000.

And even with all this, there is reporting that he received an offer to plead with no jail time. He took it to trial.
