Girls Gone Wild Founder Taken in by Federal Marshals

Not too long after a bench warrant was issued for Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis was he taken in by Federal Marshals this afternoon, five hours after he was supposed to arrive in court this morning. Francis, who was one-half of a team asking for Washington D.C. to bail out the porn industry last year, was due in court for tax evasion charges. He reportedly illegally deducted over $20 million from his companies. Francis told TMZ earlier today that he was sick and had a "note to prove it," but was going to head to court anyway. Looks like the feds were there to greet him.
