She was setting mj up for this and now shes the one in the doc.serves her right
 
Re: raymone bain to plead guilty to tax evasion

Re: raymone bain to plead guilty to tax evasion

I never understood how you can simply forget to pay your taxes. Wonder what she'll get for this?
 
Re: raymone bain to plead guilty to tax evasion

Michael Jackson's former manager pleaded guilty Wednesday in Washington to charges that she did not pay federal or District of Columbia income taxes, officials said.

Raymone Bain, a Washington-based public relations specialist who began managing the pop star three years before his death, pleaded guilty to two counts of failure to file federal income tax returns and district income tax returns.

Bain failed to pay from $200,000 to $400,000 in taxes from 2006 to 2008, the U.S. Justice Department said.

After Bain began representing Jackson in 2006, she also became president of the Michael Jackson Co., where she was responsible for its daily operations and earned a "substantial income" but knowingly never filed tax returns, prosecutors said.

Bain is set to be sentenced by U.S. District Judge Alan Kay on Aug. 31. She faces up to 12 months in prison and a $100,000 fine for failing to pay federal taxes, and up to six months in prison and a $5,000 fine for failing to pay district taxes.

Re: raymone bain to plead guilty to tax evasion

It is quite amazing that we are finding that so many people who are trying to ring money from MJ later prove to be in financial straits. I don't understand their sense of entitlement to his money to pay for their bad decisions. No wonder she has made the alliances lately that she has made.

I'm a little confused. Does this mean that she's in trouble for not paying his taxes as well, or just her own?
 
just wondering, could anything have happened to Michael since Raymone filed to file Michaels taxes or did he sign over that legal responsbility to her?

It´s all just seems crazy that she would fail to do such an obvious thing if she had responsbility. My MJ conspiracy radar is getting slightly activated.

Her own. My understanding when u look at the snipes case is that it doest matter if your accountant doesnt do their job it still comes back to you.anyone else know diff? So yes they could have gone after mj but i think theres lot of stages before they go after u criminally. Taxes was always may gtreatest concern with mj as a way for the system to get him after 03-05 and bain etc were setting him up for it big time
 
Re: raymone bain to plead guilty to tax evasion

She def got issues not only doing this to MJ but, then to her own self. Dumb.
 
Re: raymone bain to plead guilty to tax evasion

:huh: :doh: :smilerolleyes:
 
I think it is horrible how many people did not have Michael's best interests at heart. People he trusted to take care of things.

Yep, what you sew you reap. I have said this before, but some of the people who made Michael suffer have been getting their punishment, and I strongly believe he is witnessing it.
 
Re: raymone bain to plead guilty to tax evasion

And she had the nerves to claim $44m. what a joke!

Plus, since she got fired she's never found another job most probably because people realize she's utterly useless.
 
Outtake from R Friedman's column published today (showbiz411)

Finally, Michael’s former manager and publicist, Raymone Bain, had a lot to say to me in emails sent in the middle of the night. Even though the Wall Street Journal, Forbes and other publications reported that Bain had pled guilty to not filing taxes, she’s upset that I reported it. Bain would not explain to me why she hadn’t filed taxes. She wrote:

Roger…I’ve just read your column and my response:

1) As I and my attorneys indicated a couple years back when you first
reported it… I have never spoken to, met with, or had any dealings
with a Jason Cestaro… and what you are reporting, and any
representations he has made regarding me in this regard, holding
myself out as an agent, is a damned lie…you know it, he knows
it, and you can print this response…I’ve had enough of this…

2) My “being advised” by you about the loan, etc. “for the first time” is
also a damned lie…months prior to having dinner with you, I had to issue
a press release announcing that the loan wasn’t called due to
the interest payments not having been made.

In addition, every number, every report, including a blaring headline of
your’s which read, “Michael Jackson Will Lose His Catalog in 2008″
proved inaccurate…including your facts and the numbers you arbitrarily
threw out over the years.

Back in 2004 and 2005 I was a bit coy and on June 10th, exhausted; but,
should have said what I’m saying now…then: Tom Mesereau nor anyone
else had the authority to fire me based on my Agreement, which was
signed by Michael Jackson…the reason I was flown to Europe a week
or two later by Michael Jackson. You, and others keep reporting it,
knowing it’s a damned lie.

With regards to my taxes…I pled guilty for failure to file income tax
returns for 2008, period…a misdemeanor. Let me also say this, also
in response to your column, whatever Michael J.Jackson made in Japan, or anywhere else, would be reflected on
his tax returns…not mine. You want to see my returns…I want
to see yours.

I dont think he is obsessed, he just comments his sources and info..., MJ is not his priority..., but he has a lot of important info from insiders of the issues......

I can add this from Friedmans article ending the Bains part, to be fair:

I’ll say one thing about Bain’s email: if Michael Jackson hadn’t died on June 25, 2009 it’s quite possible he would have lost the Beatles catalog and a lot more. At the time of his death, Neverland was in the hands of Colony Capital, and out of his control. Jackson was deeply in debt. For years he’d refused to do anything sensible to solve his financial problems. He was capricious and disloyal, and often acted out like a spoiled child. He went behind his advisors’ backs and made crazy deals that usually ended with lawsuits and reciminations. It’s only since Jackson died, and sensible decisions could be made, that his estate has partially recovered.

No its not about Michael taxes at all Just her own taxes.

The article is just stressing she was working for MJ at that time and made a good income
but she didnt file her taxes or report her income during that time.
