Wesley Snipes Released From Prison

After serving a 27-month prison stint for tax evasion, actor Wesley Snipes is no longer behind bars. The “Blade” trilogy star was reportedly released on April 2, then transferred to the New York Community Corrections Office, which will oversee his home confinement for the remainder of his sentence.

The 50-year-old actor was convicted of three misdemeanor counts back in 2008 for failing to file tax returns. He lost an appeal for a retrial in 2010 which resulted in his being sentenced to 3 years at a Pennsylvania minimum security correctional institution.

Throughout his tax troubles, the married father of five had maintained his innocence, insisting that he was misled by his tax advisers.
