After beating the serious tax evasion charge, it looked like Blade was going to get off, but the harsh reality is not so fairy talish, According to reports; Snipes was sentenced to 3 years for willfully failing to file U.S. income tax returns for 1999 through 2001
3 years was the maximum sentence on the remaining charges he was found guilty on, Snipes tried to ask for pity from the Judge, but with no avail.
The 45-year-old Hollywood actor, who has starred in films including Blade, White Men Can’t Jump and Demolition Man, was given the maximum sentence possible after prosecutors described him to a court in Ocala, Florida, as a “truly notorious offender.” He did not have to go to prison immediately but must surrender to custody at a later date
