According to court records, Charles Johnson Sr., 82, ran Williams-Russell and Johnson, an engineering firm headquartered in Atlanta.
Johnson failed to pay significant amounts of withheld income and employment taxes to the IRS; payments to the firm’s retirement plan; and health insurance premiums. These funds were collected and withheld from employee paychecks for multiple years, stretching from at least 2015 to 2019.
