A former Danville business owner was sentenced last week for failure to pay taxes. 66-year-old Julia McKinnis was sentenced to three years’ probation with 12 months of home confinement for failing to pay over $600k in taxes.

She previously pled guilty in October of 2024 and will also have to serve 300 hours of community service. 

According to court documents, in 2007, McKinnis began operating a home health care business called Angel Wings Home Health. Since at least 2010, McKinnis has been the administrator and 90 percent owner of Angel Wings.

In 2011, the Collections Division of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) launched an investigation into Angel Wings’s failure to properly report and pay employment taxes. The investigation concluded in 2016, and Angel Wings entered into an installment agreement to pay the unpaid taxes.

However, beginning in the third quarter of 2018 and continuing through the fourth quarter of 2021, Angel Wings substantially understated its employee wages to the IRS and again failed to report and pay the employment taxes that the company owed.
