A Florida jury has acquitted Wesley Snipes of federal tax fraud and conspiracy charges, but convicted him of three misdemeanor counts of failing to file tax returns.
Snipes, who originally faced up to 16 years in prison, could get up to three years.
His two co-defendants were convicted by the same jury of tax fraud and conspiracy.
