Hoping to see Joe Francis get ten years for tax evasion? Too bad. The Girls Gone Wild founder made a last-minute deal with prosecutors for probation and time served after it was discovered that one of their main witnesses had lied in grand jury testimony. He also to turn over a quarter mil in restitution, but once he takes a few booby photos he’ll make it right back.

Though he and Jayde Nicole still have matching civil suits against each other for that hair-pulling incident last summer, the LA district attorney decided last week to file no criminal charges against anyone involved in the melee. For now, haters seeking schadenfreude will just have to hope it comes from the smut peddler’s pocketbook. But we’re sure he’ll get into trouble again before too long.
