Richardhatch_wireimage_290 "Survivor" winner Richard Hatch, aka The Naked Guy, is out of jail after serving four years for tax evasion, reports Usmagazine.com.

Hatch, 48, was sentenced to 51 months in prison in January 2006 for failing to pay taxes on his $1 million won from "Survivor." He was scheduled for release in October, but was released early from the West Virginia prison on Monday for good behavior.

He's not totally free to go home though. Hatch will go to a halfway house in Pennsylvania until Oct. 7.
