Dr. Dino Denied
The Pensacola News Journal reports the appeal by creationist Kent Hovind and his wife, Jo Hovind, asking for an acquittal on tax-fraud charges has been denied.
In January, Hovind was found guilty on 58 federal counts, including failure to pay $845,000 in employee-related taxes. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison.
Jo Hovind was convicted of 44 counts of evading bank-reporting requirements. She will face sentencing soon.
Hovind thought the evidence against him was as thin as the evidence for evolution, but he's still going to do 10 years hard time.
