Money Buys Freedom Lionel Richie Escapes Jail Sentence With $1 Million

According to reports the legend was slammed with a $1M tax lien in 2012 for avoiding taxes in 2010
Music Legend Lionel Richie may have just bought his freedom with more than half a million dollars after he reportedly settled his debt with the IRS.

The BET's Lifetime Achievement Award winner was slapped with a tax lien back in 2012 for allegedly failing to pay above $1 million in income tax back in 2010, according to TMZ.

But according to new documents obtained by the site today, [11.08.14] The US tax office has officially lifted the debt and Richie is free and current.

Its likely, the "I Call It Love" hit maker probably paid off the $1 million he owed the US government in order to perhaps avoid embarrassment and keep his great reputation running smoothly.
