Gladys Knight's Son Arrested After Gladys Knight Chicken And Waffles Restaurants Raided


"I don't want to do wrong," said her son, probably. Story out of Georgia:

Restaurants branded with the name of soul singer Gladys Knight have been raided by Georgia authorities as the music legend's son stands accused of tax fraud.

Agents with the Georgia Department of Revenue raided all locations of Gladys Knight’s Chicken and Waffles as well as the company headquarters on Tuesday.

Her son, Shanga Hankerson, who runs the business, is accused of stealing more than $650,000 in sales and withholding taxes owed to the state.

The state alleges Hankerson stole the money for his personal use. After penalties and interest, the total exceeds $1 million, officials said.

As part of the raids, the officials tried unsuccessfully to arrest Hankerson.

Gladys Knight is not suspected of any criminal activity. Cont.
