by the way I made a quick research about her attorney and he was actually part of the prosecution team in the Wesley Snipes before working in the private sector, so it seems that she is represented by one of the best lawyers for this kind of matter. And when a professional of this caliber explains that Ms Hill is targeted because of her status, it only adds more sense and seriousness to her statement on tumblr. I wish more people could see the big picture... Wow, he was partly responsible for sending Snipes to jail, huh ... interesting? So let's hope, now that he's working for the other team, he can keep Ms. Hill out of jail.

mountzion some jurisdictions allow artist to still carry on regular routine since it's their way of making bread, plus she has 6 children and a human lol...plus if worse case scenario she does have to serve a sentence, it will probably house arrest since she still has parental duties.

Um, a super human @mt. Zion: Ms. Hill's attorneys originally asked for the sentencing to take place in January, so they probably got her an extension so she can finish touring. Her court date may have been moved to some time in December or after the tour. If she's not working, Uncle Sam can't get paid. Nas is getting hit hard: Nas’ Tour Profits Are Being Seized For Tax Debts
Posted 11/20/12 5:12 pm EST by MTV News in Music News
By Henna KathiyaNas' tax troubles have been much publicized in the past few years, and now the state of Georgia plans on garnishing wages from his tour with Lauryn Hill to settle what they're owed. According to TMZ, the Queensbridge MC owes the Georgia Department of Revenue $1,083,435 dollars for taxes from 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2010 and the GDR has already been garnishing his royalty checks to make up for the $6 million that Nas owes the government in back taxes. Georgia will get their payment in due time--from the emcees' current “Life is Good/Black Rage” tour with Lauryn Hill. The GDR has ordered that Live Nation, who are promoting the tour, garnish Nas' wages until all things are paid off. Nas’ reps maintain that the situation has been taken care of but it seems as if Georgia still has not gotten what they are looking for just yet. Hopefully the tour’s success will keep his debt at bay. rapfix.mtv.com/2012/11/20/nas-tour-profits-are-being-seized-for-tax-debts/A quick video: www.dailymotion.com/video/xruznh_lauryn-hill-pleads-guilty_news

I don't understand what he is doing. Who exactly is his audience? Lauryn has 80,000 followers on twitter. He has 100. If she wanted to make an announcement, why not post on twitter or tumbler as she has done in the past? Her twits would be picked up by the blogs and major media outlets. She would have no shortage of support if she needed it. He has to have connections with major artist and radio etc. I don't know his last few twits about Ms. Hill don't seem logical.

The majority of his followers appears to be fans of Ms. Hill, which whom he seems to be reaching out to. When I saw his tweet regarding her upcoming sentencing, I emailed him to see exactly what he is looking for in terms of support for Ms. Hill. Mr. Schwartz replied immediately to my email and basically he stated as I am paraphrasing. He is asking Ms. Hill's fans to simply write to the judge in a letter of support to Ms. Hill on how her music has impacted her audience and how she uses her platform to spread positivity. I did not feel the need to over analyze his intentions; I just felt the need to see what could I do as a fan to help her situation especially being that she is a mother of six. I personally don't think it would be in the best interest for her to use her social media outlets asking her fans to write a letter in support of her (the masses would have a field day), which is why he is probably using his platform to do it instead. They are business partners and more importantly probably friends, and I don’t think he would be acting or doing anything that Ms. Hill would not approve of. But that's just my opinion!

dazonne Thank you. I understand his intent. Did he give you the date of sentencing? Also, do you have an address for the court?
