Joe Francis Arrested!!!

Filed under: Legal Matters > Joe Francis

wenn-francis.jpg

Joe Francis was arrested yesterday after showing up 5 hours late to a preliminary court hearing. U.S. District Judge S. James Otero had issued a warrant for his arrest when Francis failed to appear on time.

Francis' excuse? Oh, the flu.

But Judge Otero had no sympathy for the Girls Gone Wild founder and had him hauled off to the pokey.

Francis is accused of failing to pay taxes on more than $20 million in business expenses, and faces 10 years in prison if convicted.

The trial is scheduled to commence in March. Monday's hearing was scheduled at his law firm's request to be removed as Francis' legal counsel in the case.

Looks like his law firm is jumping ship!

No good ever comes from boozing underage girls into baring their boobies!

    "Francis is accused of failing to pay taxes"- So the majority of President Obama's new governemnt…So why is this guy going to jail and Obama's cute boys received a position in his governemnt and gret salaries? …I just don't get it….Oh well, maybe that is the "CHANGE" that the new president is talking about. You don't pay taxes? You are one of my people! ….Joe Francis has nothing to fear…..CHANGE IS COMING TO AMERICA!

    Is this the guy who said Tara Reid was a horrible lay? He must not be into "sad clown face stomachs".



  19. 19

    This idiot never learns… When they lock his ass up for 10 years (a la OJ Simpson) then MAYBE he'll realize the world doesn't operate on his terms… another waste of MY air.

    I think this guy just wants to go to jail so he can get fucked in the ass without having to cop to being gay.



  29. 29

    I hope he ends up in the pen taking it in the pooper nightly. Back in my day, we had decent pornographers like Larry Flynt. This little turd is nothing. NOTHING.



  30. 30

    what an idiot!



  31. 31

    I always wondered what went through those girls' minds when they were watching comedy central at 4 in the morning and saw their tig-o-bitties bouncing around.

    anyone ever see the "boys gone wild" commercial? ick

  32. jham says – reply to this

    he should be arrested for molestation - getting people drunk in order to get them to engage in behavior they otherwise would not, should be illegal. If they are underage, it IS illegal and the loser should rot



  33. 33

    About time this loser goes to jail.



  34. 34

    why do these stupid girls do these 'girls gone wild' vids and not get any money out of it? basically, they're taking their clothes off cuz some guy told them too?? so they're just slaves! don't they realize that this joe guy is just exploiting them?? hell, do a porn vid, take off your clothes…i don't care. but get some money out of it!! NONE of these girls got paid, none of them even demanded money upfront before acting stupid. and they can't sue him, cuz there was never a contract or an agreement. i mean, how DUMB are these girls??



  35. 35

    Joe Francis did not pay taxes on
    twenty million dollars?
    Who does he think he is,
    a member of the
    Obama administration?!
    .
    If he were, he could say -
    "Oops, my bad!"
    and be off the hook
    with no fines or late fees.



  36. 36

    He can bunk with Anne Hathaway's ex. Two shady goons. :)



  37. 37

    I've always wanted to punch this guy in the face. I don't care that he created girls gone wild, but he just looks like a big douche bag!!



  38. 38

    This guy is a serious tool. He looks like Adam Brody after two trips down puberty lane.
