He failed to show up for a federal trial on tax evasion charges more than 14 months ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He was a man who seemingly had it all. Married with four sons, he was starting and selling businesses - earning himself tens of millions of dollars in the process. He had two lavish homes - one in North Oaks, Minnesota and another in Naples, Florida. He had a private plane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2000 he came to believe income taxes are un-American.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A devout Christian, he told us in an earlier interview "the Constitution came from a Christian culture - and only Christians can defend it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a federal indictment - he didn't pay any income from 2000 - 2004. During that time, it's alleged he earned about $5 million. The federal share of that money alone would have been $1.5 million.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He narrowly escaped capture just two weeks after the would-be start date of his trial, but he hasn't been seen since.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not until last Thursday - November 1 when he was arrested in Orlando, Florida. He's been hiding out there since the first of the year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KARE 11's Rick Kupchella interviewed Beale at Florida's Orange County Jail on Tuesday, November 6th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've divided that interview has chapters below.&lt;br /&gt;
