Okay, I had the TV on in the background & just hear that Richard Hatch, the first Survivor winner, was just found guilty of tax evasion for not reporting his $1,000,000 show winnings, PLUS a few hundred thousand of appearance money.
Okay, so he was famous for 15 minutes, but on National TV, how many people knew he won the money ( I assume a few IRS agents watched the show), and he DID NOT REPORT THIS ON HIS TAX RETURN. Um, Hello

Maybe a poorly 'hatched' plan to gain more media spotlight?

Perhaps he thought of it as his nest egg and he was trying to hatch it.

Apparently he had been offered a deal about a year ago and initially took it, but then changed his mind and opted for the crap shoot of a trial. Maybe he was hoping his celebrity status would allow a not guilty verdict. As one commentator said last night, it's pretty amazing that OJ is walking free and this guy could get 13 years for tax evasion...........

 But if Hatch thought he could use his very tenuous 'celebrity' status to get him out of a jam, he should have looked around the legal world to see that more often than not, juries and judges make examples of celebrities when sentancing (with the big exception of OJ). |

Maybe he could not get a real job & heard that in Jail, there was an opening in the Fudge Packing department.
