The brother and famous Hollywood actor of Alec Baldwin, Stephen wascharged with allegedly failing to file income tax in New York. Stephen Baldwin allegedly owes over $350,000 for 3 years, according to KTLA.com. He has pleaded not guilty to the charge and has so far allegedly paid a sum of $100,000 and is due back in court on February 5 to possibly settle a further arrangement with the state.
As you know, there are a lot of celebrities in Hollywood and even in the music industry that always fall behind on their taxes. This is nothing new and they are fortunate to be able to make a deal, but it does not occur all the time, it is only if the state agrees with the attorney of the defendant's request. For instance, like in the case of Wesley Snipes, no deal was allowed to be made and he is yet serving time in prison, allegedly.
On the other hand, Stephen's brother, Alec Baldwin spoke with Piers Morgan on CNN and explained in so many words, many people do not mean to avoid paying taxes and these individuals fall into two categories, either those whom are rich and those whom lack wealth and we can agree on that opinion. We agree rich people have a lot of money and may spend often without even thinking to keep track of paying their taxes and those whom lack wealth often do not have a lot of finance to pay off their debt. Therefore, of course, this is why a lot of people get in trouble with failing to pay taxes.
In the meantime, our prayers are with Stephen Baldwin and sincerely hope he gets this issue worked out, which we feel he most definitely will, since he already paid $100, 000 in good faith.
