Michael J. Super, Tax Evasion, Mississippi 2023

A Hattiesburg man has been sentenced to 24 months in federal prison for tax evasion, announced U.S. Attorney Mike Hurst and Thomas J. Holloman III, Acting Special Agent in Charge, IRS Criminal Investigation.

Michael J. Super, 44, of Hattiesburg, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Keith Starrett after pleading guilty to tax evasion for failing to pay federal employee trust fund taxes due on behalf of the employees of his company, Eagle Eye Security Services of Hattiesburg.

Super had entered into an agreement with the government to pay these taxes over a period of time, but failed to make any payments. The IRS issued levies against the company, but Super still failed to make any payments.

To avoid the IRS levies, Super opened another security business to which he transferred all of the assets and clients of his previous company. When the IRS pursued the assets of the second company, Super again transferred all assets and clients to a third company.

The IRS collected some of the employee trust fund taxes due, but Super evaded paying $165,075.92, which he will now be required to pay in restitution as a part of his sentence.

A total of $165,075.92 in restitution will be paid by Super. The case was investigated by IRS Criminal Investigation and prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Dave Fulcher.
