Fair and ballanced...

Post by bio » Tue Sep 20, 2005 10:10 am

Richard Hatch, winner of the reality TV series "Survivor" has been indited on charges that he didn't pay taxes on the $1 million dollar prize. He could be sentanced to up to 75 years in prision.

Dennis Kozlowski, former CEO of Tyco Inernational, stole more than $150 million from the company and could be sentanced to up to 25 years.

WTF!!

Stealing $150 million is better than not paying the income tax on 1/150th that amount?

Hmm, reading the Hatch story it's a little more than JUST the Survivor money. Still 75 years seems quite steep. Especially when murderers are out in less time. Guess it's the quantity of the crime not the quality eh?

A homosexual known for walking around flaunting his nakedness and for abusing his adoptive son.

Yeah, he's gonna have a great time in prison.

I just realised Hatch is up on federal charges, and Kozlowski whas charged in the state of New York. Hatch will probably go to a federal white collar prison, and Kozlowski is going to a real f@*k me in the ass prison.

Go figure.
