Probably a small fine to him, needs criminal penalties

Yup. $92k is probably less than a rounding error for someone who has 7 McDonald's.

Also, he did this with 154 kids (that we know of). That's less than $600 per child.

It's not like the kids or their families get any reparations right? The government just takes some $ and the owner writes it off. "Justice served"

If his franchises do about average sales he needs to do $1,840,000 in sales to cover the fine. From FranchiseTheory.com.

"McDonald’s Average Gross Revenue Per Franchise Location

McDonald’s franchises in Traditional Locations have produced on average $3,487,000 of Gross Sales in 2021 per location. The highest gross earning location has made $13,625,000, and the lowest has had sales of $680,000."

Okay. Let's say each of his 7 franchise locations get the minimum. That gives him $4.76 Million in sales in a year.

And they claim the average margin is 5%. So he's taking home $238,000 a year in your example. Next year, no so much.
