You've probably heard that Wesley Snipes received the maximum sentence for not paying his taxes--3 years based on 3 misdemeanor violations. His "advisors," tax fraud denialists with crackpot legal theories received 10 for conspiring to defraud the government of tax revenue:
Snipes' co-defendants in the case,Lake County anti-tax guru Eddie Ray Kahn, 64, and tax preparer Douglas P. Rosile, 59, face up to 10 years in prison. Both were convicted of conspiracy and tax fraud for their work with American Rights Litigators and Guiding Light of God Ministries, two Lake County-based "tax-fraud" mills.
