UPDATE ON RONALD ISLEY
Sunday, March 11, 2007

Ronald Isley and wife at the Soul Train Music Awards this weekend in Cali.
As most of you know, his tax evading self will not serve the full 26 years he was sentenced to. His January 2006 sentencing was postponed until the end of August of this year, where he will supposedly only serve about 37 months.
That’s why he is still a free man right about now. His lawyers argued that because of complications from a stroke and a recent bout with kidney cancer that he shouldn’t serve the full term. Etcetera, Etcetera…
Good Job Ron! You didn’t pay your taxes for over 10 years, cashed checks in your dead brother’s name, and you only have to serve 3 years (maybe less). Meanwhile if my ass would have done the same thing, I would be in jail for about 20 years. Gotta love celebs!
Now what’s up with that R.Kelly trial….

SMH at buying justice! He can run from jail, but he can’t run from God… well at least he’s not messing with minors…

his old ass wouldn’t be able to do 26 years anyway! But I have a feeling that he won’t do 3 years. He can probably get out for good behavior. Keep ya head up!

Anyone with an effective attorney would have received the same deal. When you can afford good attorneys, you receive much lighther sentences, if anything at all.
HERE IS A PIECE OF ADVICE…
If you are ever in trouble, HIRE a private attorney. This semester I externed in the Public Defender’s Office for course credit in law school. They do not have the time, experience, or resources to effectively represent defendants. Furthermore, most of them are buddies with the Prosecutors so they are more inclined to negotiate terrible guilty pleas so that the case does not go to trial.
Gotta love our justice system. It works only for those that can afford to pay!

#7 Shawn just bounces from black blog to black blog running his/her/its mouth about random nonsense. Check them out on Bossip.com blogs, too.
Shawn is nothing more than a troll patrolling for attention. Honestly, people like this individual are very sad people, and I’m being totally serious. We have a lot of mentally and emotionally deficient people in our society, and the Internet gives people like Shawn a place to interact with people since they probably rarely have social lives.
Just ignore it. Don’t feed the animals.

I love Ron’s music, and his issue with the IRS are his own problem. But, cashing his dead brother’s checks is just down-right funky. I am glad you spoke on that. We black folks protect our celebrities at our own peril. If there is a God, or higher power, we all have to answer, the perpetrators, and the condoners. What’s wrong is wrong, period.

Ron Isley is a nice guy, and he much to old to serve time.

While everyone is complaining about this entertainer’s tax evasion issues and about him cashing his deceased brother’s checks…most of ya’ll will STILL support him by buying his music and dancin to his jams in the club. Just like RKelly–ya’ll spit about how much of a pedophile he is and then TURN RIGHT AROUND AND BUY HIS RECORDS AND CONCERT TICKETS!
THOSE OF YOU WHO FIT IN THIS CATEGORY NEED TO SIT THE HELL DOWN CUZ YOUR OPINION IS VOID. IF YOU GONE TALK ABOUT IT, BE ABOUT IT!

I like his music, but what he did was grimey. I agree anyone non celeb or someone without big bucks, who did something like that would be sitting in jail…and medical reason aren’t a excuse. all the checks he cashed he can buy a on-call nurse and doctor.

@26 your on point. You know he is a sick man so they will argue that. I still can’t get over that he was cashing checks from his deceased brother. How could he live with himself for doing that. Such worthless behavior.

Angel.. You’re RIGHT about us serving time for the same crime that Mr. Isley is done
BUT Ron Isley is a LIVING LEGEND and not just a celebrity!!!!!
I wouldn’t want to see him go to jail any more than Prince or Smokey Robinson or Diana Ross… LEGENDS of the game shouldn’t have to do Hard-Time in jail for Non-violent crimes JMO

@ #35, I’m pretty sure his brother didn’t care. I mean he is dead.
He has a very pretty wife. When did him and Angela Winbush divorce? I used to love her “Angel” song. That was the ish!

Celebrities always manage to get around the law. Im sure if he wasnt a celebrity or well off finacially he would have been thrown in jail to serve the sentence handed to him. I like the Isleys music ,but I had no idea that MR BIGGS hadnt been paying his taxes for that many years,and continuing to cash checks issued in name of a deceased sibling just “trifling” ! He makes money ,and like so many other wealthy folks feels above the law! Im sorry to hear about the stroke and bout with kidney cancer but wrong is wrong and I call it as I see it. That doesnt look like his wife in pic ( though he married someone young enough to be his grandchild, but who knows?lol
Ps Does anyoen know why him and Angela Winbush got divorced? I didnt hear about until they were in the middle of it,and alwats wondered because they seemed liek a wonderful couple, and that Angela Winbush is so talented and beautiful(singer, songwriter, music arranger,plays instrument). Guess she no lonbvger fit into his “MY BIGGS”lifetstyle and image.

People need to understand that Ron Isley and the rest of them have been performing since people had conks and zoot suits (since the early 1950’s). That is an eternity in the game. Sure, he has done some crooked things and is facing charges but name some celebrities at the top that didn’t. Entertainment is a dirty business and it’s survival of the fittest. They don’t call him Mr. Biggs for nothing. People need to check his resume before passing judgement…

That’s not his wife, his wife is blonde. She had their baby in December. It was a boy. His name is Ronald O’Kelly Isley, Jr. She was at the Soul Train Awards–in the front row. He thanked her when they picked up the Best Group/Band/Duo award. Stop believing everyting you read! LOL They’re together and happy

All you haters out there. Take a look at yourself. Then ask yourself have you ever did anything wrong.
The answer will be yes. Now ask yourself why do you want this man to go down. You might realize you re angry with yourself for what you don t have.
Read my friend Read !!

who ever made the checks out in his dead brothers name knew he was dead, his brother gave Ron power of attorney so he could cash the checks. His income tax problems more than likely came about because of putting all his trust in some snake in tha grass to take care of his bread instead of keeping an eye on it himself. You see it all the time. But did Willie Nelson get any time for his episode with the IRS? Nope. He even got caught with enough dope to send a black kid to jail for “37″ years flat, but was allowed to drive away. The system is after JustUs

White people been getting away with tax evasion since law. Taxes were made for blacks, not whites. White people find a way not to pay legally, but blacks just havent found that loop hole yet. Its kind of like the “buddy system”. this land was built on the white man law and laws only apply to blacks. Why would you want to convict someone of something you and your forefathers have done for years.

Don’t hate, why not let the brother get some young loving one more time. The young brothers do not know how to treat a lady anyway. And they are either bi or Gay that is why so many younger sisters feel safe with us old school brothers. Our time has come and we old school are starting to clean the clocks of the young thugs!
