method man.jpgThe government is demonstrating it’s serious about clamping down on tax evasion. Forget people with Swiss bank accounts, Method Man is in trouble. The Wu-Tang member turned himself in today and faces two counts of tax evasion.after the IRS discovered he was in a bit of a fog when he was supposed to pay his taxes from 2004-2007. The $33k in back taxes plus additional penalties he owes could cost him 4 years in the big house if found guilty.

    I’m betting it’ll cost way more than 33K+levy to incarcerate this guy in the big house for four big ones.
    But go ahead and make an example out of the guy. The tax payer pays so they don’t really care.

    Greg,
    I’m going to spray old fish juice throughout your ventilation system. This will not only smell, but also frustrate as you fish for a non-existent body.
