Wesley Snipes to the maximum three-year sentence on tax charges.
Prosecutors had requested the maximum three-years, one year for
each of Snipes' convictions of willfully failing to file a tax
return.
Snipes' lawyers offered three dozen letters from family members,
friends and even fellow actors Woody Harrelson and Denzel
Washington attesting to his good character. They argued he should
get only probation, because all three convictions were misdemeanors
and the actor had no previous criminal record.
