Ex-Wu-Tang Clan member Method Man –real name Clifford Smith- plead guilty to tax evasion on Monday. He owed $106,000 to Uncle Sam, but wrote a $40,000 check on the spot. He was arrested on October 9 on charges he failed to pay state and personal income taxes. He plead guilty to a charge of attempted failure to pay tax. The rapper was sentenced to a conditional discharge; that means the arrest will be purged from his record if he stays out of trouble . So if he is the opposite of Lindsay Lohan, then he should be just fine.

“When he found out about the tax issue he hired someone and immediately corrected it,” defense attorney Peter Frankel said. “He took care of it quickly like the good member of our community he is.” This statement begs the question of why he didn’t know that tax payments weren’t made. Apparently, he failed to file tax returns from 2004 through 2007.
