“Girls Gone Wild” founder Joe Francis’ criminal trial will need Jennifer Aniston’s help.Francis is facing tax evasion charges that could result in a maximum 10-year prison term; the case goes to trial in October.
The prosecution plans to prove that Francis sought to conceal income in offshore companies and deducted millions in phony business expenses. So, Francis’ defense team plans to identify Aniston, Jack Nicholson, Vince Vaughn and Orlando Bloom as “celebrity guests” who stayed at Francis’ Mexican home in order to argue that the estate was an investment property leased to wealthy tenants, which warrant certain business deductions.
