(AP) — An Omaha employer has been sentenced to prison for a single federal count of failing to pay taxes withheld from his employees’ paychecks.

Daniel Malone had initially been charged with two counts for failing to pay nearly $171,000 in federal income and Federal Insurance Contributions Act taxes in 2005 and 2006.

The 66-year-old Malone had faced up to five years in prison; on Thursday, he was sentenced to 10 months in federal prison.

U.S. Attorney Deb Gilg says Malone was also ordered to pay a $3,000 fine, as well as $170,967 in restitution. He will serve one year of supervision following his release from prison.
