The Internal Revenue Service said Craig underreported his income for tax years 2012 to 2017 by approximately $439,000, depriving the government of $143,237 in taxes.

 

A federal judge is scheduled to sentence Craig on Jan. 23.

He could be sentenced to up to three years in prison and fined up to $250,000.
