WILLIAMSPORT — The United States Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced today that Joseph Rinker of Lycoming County, was sentenced to two years of probation by Chief U.S. District Court Judge Matthew W. Brann for tax evasion.

According to United States Attorney John C. Gurganus, Rinker pleaded guilty to a criminal information that charged him with using his position as the manager of the Harvest Moon Restaurant in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, to embezzle over $300,000, that he subsequently failed to report as income to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") from 2014 to 2017. Rinker was ordered to pay $64,250 in restitution to the IRS prior to the sentencing hearing held on February 18, 2022.

The case was investigated by the IRS's Criminal Investigations Division. Assistant U.S. Attorney Alisan V. Martin prosecuted the case.
