Capitol Hill Chef Faces Tax Felony | Seattle News

A Capitol Hill restaurant owner is facing felony charges after allegedly withholding over a million dollars in employee taxes for a decade—starting when his spot opened in 2014. Prosecutors say he kept the money instead of sending it to the IRS, skipped 36 quarterly tax filings, and may have paid out nearly $5.5 million in wages.

His Single Shot Kitchen and Saloon remains open, but this legal storm could reshape his future. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
