You be the judge: Wesley Snipes -- innocent, dirtbag, or worse?
NEW YORK - Actor Wesley Snipes sued New York City on Monday charging that it has no jurisdiction to arrest him as part of an Indiana paternity case.

The suit, filed in Manhattan federal court, seeks a court ruling invalidating an arrest warrant issued by a New York family court judge. The Manhattan judge took the action on an interstate paternity petition filed in Indiana by a woman who says the tough-talking action star fathered her young son.

In his suit, Snipes charges that the woman is a mentally ill former crack addict who has made other claims to be the mother of many children of celebrities. He said that the woman began having delusions about him after watching the movie Blade.

"The city has seen preliminary papers in this case. We are evaluating them thoroughly, but cannot comment further, as this is now a pending legal matter," said Emily Sweet, a lawyer for the city.

The suit also names

LaPorte County, Indiana, as a defendant.

1. Why doesn't he just let them swab his cheek, and let the chips
fall where they may? Should be pretty easy to clear this up.

3. Hmmm. Could it be related to this money problem:

SNIP
Wesley Snipes played "Blade" in a trio of vampire-slaying films. But he seems to be anything but sharp when it comes to finances. "CJ" has learned Snipes is about to lose a beautiful Florida property for failure to pay taxes. He's had hard luck with real estate before; in 2003 he lost an estate through a foreclosure sale.

4. but that has nothing to do with his DNA
or am I missing something?

Now, some of these stories say that he is heavy into smoking crack. That may have something to do with his finances.

5. Well, I was thinking he may want to avoid DNA testing, because if
the child does belong to him, then he's on the hook for child support. Boy I hope he's not into crack - that is one seriously messed up drug.

8. I wonder what the law is in the both of those states
Edited on Sat Apr-23-05 06:46 PM by StaggerLee
In Michigan he could default as dad if he refused to comply with a court ordered DNA test.

6. maybe trust(?)
maybe snipes knows the punks who run america are racist/murdering criminals, maybe he'd rather fight 'em all the way rather then trust the lying pigs even with 1 cent ...remember, he's a black man

7. ok, let's go along with your theory
as I can surely understand it.

So, why can't he produce his own DNA test, paid at his own expense?

13. rush limbah-humbug, bill orally, coulter etc
are the voice of the american consciousness....and if bill cosby or michael jackson, oj simpson, kobe bryant or wesley snipes can be used to distract the news consumer from bush and his crimes, then 1000 dna test wouldn't stop them (hey, they just 'entertainers' after all)
>you know i'm being silly...but! the lies i hear every frigging day, on every newscast (outside of AAR) says that a monster is loose and it is being pampered by the stupid everywhere....if snipes had any brains, he'd get the hell outta US

9. Until a paternity test is done, there's no way to know who the dirtbag is.
Has he agreed to a paternity test?

15. He could be refusing for a couple of reasons.
He's a rich, famous guy. Perhaps he's been inundated with paternity tests for children he knows he didn't father, and he's tired of the burden of always proving he isn't the father. He may be refusing on principle.

OR perhaps he knows that he could have fathered the child, and he doesn't want to ante up.

If the former is the case, then I could understand. If the latter is the case, though, it does make him a scoundrel in my eyes.

11. He's got a bad rep as an asshole and lousy tipper
He's not held in great regard at http://bitterwaitress.com

snip

Location: New York
Celebrity: Wesley Snipes
Restaurant: Brasserie 8-1/2
The restaurant is hosting a premiere for an HBO movie starring Wesley. He was totally drunk on one after another Courvosiers, which were ordered through his uppity handlers. As the party was breaking up and we were closing down the restaurant for the night, I went into the women's restroom. Upon leaving the stall, I see Wesley Snipes pissing in the sink while his bodyguard stood at the door to prevent anyone coming in. Apparently, checking to see if anyone was already in there was not considered first. The bodyguard was clearly embarrassed although Wesley was completely oblivious. No class.

He is weird and tips on whimsy. Depending on who you are and what mood he is in, not on the quality of service. Sometimes he is a lousy tipper or no tipper at all and sometimes he'll give more than 20%. I don't know if it's true he tips better if you're black, as he's given lousy tips to black servers too.

Restaurant: Pf Changs
arrogant asshole who doesn't know how to tip.

snip

Location: Vancouver
Celebrity: Wesley Snipes
This was a couple of years ago. I managed a popular nightclub in Vancouver called BarNone. On a jammin Thursday night in walks Wesley Snipes. We were pretty used to getting big names so he was not that big of a deal to us. He stayed for a couple of hours had two bottles of 93' Crystal , leaving a 9% tip. He first expected us to pick it up but I refused. Before he left I asked him if the service had been OK. He said that it had been great and asked why I had asked. I explained that I happened to notice the gratuity and that it did not indicate that the service had been good. I wanted to make sure it was. He left and came back early in the next week. He again purchased two bottles of Crystal or as he refers to it "Stal". This time he left a 6% tip. I again asked if the service had been there, he replied again that it was great. He then shows up two weeks later , again, early in the week. Oh and guess what? That's right, two bottles of "Stal". This time the jerk leaves 4%. Now, he has had the same server each time, she is a stellar server, big breasted, beautiful and incredibly intelligent. I know the service was awesome because I supervised it all night. So again, before he leaves, I ask him how the service was? But this time I do it in front of his whole group. He says to me, "Why are you always asking how the service was , it was fine!" I replied with , well sir, you have been such a pathetic tipper I thought it may be the service but now I realize that you are just a cheap bastard. He then says "How dare you......". I cut him off at that point and said "Listen Wesley , you either leave now , quietly, or me and my boys(several large doormen standing behind me after the yelling started) will Passenger 57 your ass!" Eat my shorts Wesley , I am a little girl Snipes.

That's four of the tidbits about Mr. Snipes
