Stephen Baldwin pleads guilty to tax charge, will pay $300,000 [View all]

Poor Stephen...discriminated against in Hollywood because of his faith. Always some excuse from these Conservative nutjobs when caught breaking the law. No wonder Trump likes him.

Wasn't he supposed to leave the country if obama was reelected?

(CNN) -- Actor Stephen Baldwin pleaded guilty to repeated failure to file income taxes for three years and will pay $300,000 in back taxes, his attorney Russell Yankwitt said Friday.

Baldwin initially needed to pay $400,000 in back taxes, interest and penalties, but the court waived interest and penalties, which brought the total to $350,000, Yankwitt. The court then reduced that amount to $300,000, for which Baldwin was very grateful, Yankwitt said.

If Baldwin pays back the money within a year, the charge will be taken off his record, the attorney said. If not, Baldwin will be sentenced to five years' probation and have five years to repay the money, Yankwitt said.

"Mr. Baldwin is a man of faith, and it's difficult for him to get jobs in Hollywood that are compatible with his faith, and that's one of the difficulties he's had paying off the money," Yankwitt said..."
