Washington – Richard Hatch, the winner of the first Survivor series, failed to report more than $1-million at tax time, American prosecutors said on Tuesday.
Hatch, 43, of Newport, Rhode Island, also failed to report $321 000 paid to him by a Boston radio station, the US Department of Justice said in a statement.
If found guilty, Hatch could spent five years in prison or face a fine of $250 000. MORE
Umm… did he think that government officials don’t watch TV?

He was hoping they tuned out after being blinded by his naked presence on-screen.
LOL – that’s too funny
Maybe he thought, since he was on an island, that he didn’t need to pay taxes; either that or he is like goofy dumb!

People on TV are very, very stupid.
I was wondering the same thing when I saw that. They put the first season on DVD too…there’s evidence everywhere! What a stupid man.
Especially since the people that GAVE him the money told the IRS they did so (same as a paycheck, they file that you received it)
He just screwed up. Why? I don’t know.
