1st Survivor — Guilty

Wednesday, 25 January 2006, 16:45

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Richard Hatch, who won $1 million in the first season of “Survivor,” was found guilty Wednesday of failing to pay taxes on his winnings.

Hatch was also convicted of evading taxes on $327,000 he earned as co-host of a Boston radio show and $28,000 in rent on property he owned. He was acquitted of seven bank, mail and wire fraud charges.

Hatch, 44, faces up to 13 years in prison and a fine of $600,000.

Jurors deliberated for less than a day after more than a week of testimony.

Guess accusing the Survivor producers of cheating didn’t help uh?
