Snipes Heads To Prison

Kelly Phillips ErbDecember 2, 2010May 19, 2020

Actor Wesley Snipes will be spending the holidays in bucolic Pennsylvania. He just won’t be enjoying his surroundings. Snipes was ordered to report to the Federal Correctional Institution McKean in Lewis Run, Pennsylvania, by noon on December 9.

The orders follow Snipes’ unsuccessful appeal (well, appeals) of his sentence for tax evasion.

McKean is a medium security facility housing male inmates and is located in northwest Pennsylvania between Bradford and Kane, Pennsylvania. It is situated 90 miles south of Buffalo, New York. It’s housed in the town of Lewis Run, which had, at the last census count, 577 residents, and is several thousand years away from Snipes’ legal residence in Windemere, Florida. Snipes will remain in McKean for about three years.
