RT @Globe_Sports: Soccer star Messi sentenced to 21 months in prison for tax fraud http://bit.ly/29x3p7A

Guilty on 3 counts of tax fraud

Quote:
However, under Spanish law a prison sentence under two years can be served under probation, meaning Messi and his father are unlikely to go to jail.

The court ordered Messi to pay a fine of around 2 million euros ($2.21 million) and his father to pay 1.5 million euros for the crimes.

^ I am going to make a bold prediction here and say that nobody whose name is contained in this leak will ever go to jail and they will likely just pay penalties of cent's on the dollars.

meanwhile, at least in Caanda, the revenue folks will continue to mercilessly hunt down average Canadians who try and side step a few hundred in taxes - while leaving these millionaires and their accountants to figure out new instruments of fraud.

Does this even have anything to do with the Panama Papers?
