Original Survivor winner Richard Hatch has agreed to plead guilty to two counts of tax evasion, federal prosecutors said Tuesday.
The 43-year-old failed to report his $1.01 million winnings from the show in 2000, and a subsequent $321,000 he was paid to anchor a Boston radio show in 2001.
Hatch, who lives in Newport, Rhode Island, faces a $250,000 fine for each charge and a maximum ten years in federal prison.
