Girls Gone Wild founder and convicted felon Joe Francis has been arrested again after homie thought it would be cool to breeze into court 5 hours late to a hearing concerning charges of tax evasion. Upon his arrival, Francis tried to give the “I’m sick” excuse and was handcuffed and taken into custody … which prolly means that being 5 hours late to court ain’t very cool after all. Here is one of Joe‘s old mug shots (the new one hasn’t been released) and some deets on what went down:

“Girls Gone Wild” founder Joe Francis has been arrested in Los Angeles after he showed up five hours late for a court hearing in his tax evasion case. When the adult-video entrepreneur finally appeared in court on Monday afternoon, he told the judge he was suffering from the flu. Francis’ attorney Melissa Weinberger says U.S. marshals then handcuffed Francis and took him away. Francis is accused of claiming more than $20 million in bogus business expenses on his corporate tax returns, including $3.8 million for a home in Mexico and $10.4 million in phony consulting services. He has pleaded not guilty to two counts of federal tax evasion. The hearing was to consider a request from his tax attorneys to recuse themselves.

This man’s disdain and disrespect for the law is ridiculous. I really hope he continues to act in this childish and idiotic way so that he will continue to be thrown back in jail time and time again. I suppose Joe hasn’t learned the lesson that it’s not very smart to piss off the government, especially when they think you owe them money. Don’t be surprised if Joe Francis ends up getting a nice long stretch in federal prison when this matter is all said and done … but do be relieved, like I will be :)
