Carlos Mencia Faces Tax Charges

Comedian Carlos Mencia is locked in a high-stakes legal battle after being charged with 12 felony counts of tax evasion — allegedly failing to report or pay taxes on $8 million in earnings. Pleading not guilty, he’s been jailed but recently had his bail slashed from $250K to $50K, and court docs confirm he’s posted bail. Facing up to 11 years if convicted, Mencia — once a Comedy Central star and stand-up legend — now finds himself sidelined as investigations continue, reminding everyone that even celebrities aren’t above the law.
