Default Handcuffs and leg chains in court?? Our government can be pretty stupid.

It's frikkin Helio for crying out loud. What are they afraid of, he's gonna two-step his way out of custody?

The government always thinks they can use celebrities as scare tactics for the rest of us.

"Wow, look at Helio! I better close all my offshore accounts!"

What a joke.<ul><li><a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/rpm/racing/indycar/news/story?id=3624257&amp;campaign=rss&amp;source=ESPNH eadlines">http://sports.espn.go.com/rpm/racing/indycar/news/story?id=3624257&amp;campaign=rss&amp;source=ESPNH eadlines</a</li></ul>

Default I wonder if they would have used restraints on somebody like Barbara Streisand.

Seriously doubt it. Discriminatory showboating.

$10M bail for failing to report $5.5M?!?! Seems a bit excessive.

Default IRS isn't known for fair enforcement. Just another example of a justice system

in need of repair. Or maybe the judge that set bail isn't a Penske fan.
