"Dr" Dino goes down...
Nov. 3rd, 2006 09:45 amSometimes the system doesn't fail entirely. Kent Hovind- who hasn't actually finished his PhD from a USA degree mill has gone and been charged with 58 federal counts including failure to pay a bill of $845,000 dollars. His wife was convicted on 44 counts.
When speaking publically about the case Hovind claimed to be "an employee of God" and thus exempt from taxation. His lawyer claimed no-one told him he should.
Lawyers for the defence presented no evidence, and called no witnesses.
Sentencing is to follow, but Hovind faces 288 years in prison and hs wife 255.
At least he now has a qualification- Convicted Felon Alleged Dr Kent Hovind.
