HIs son… says Walker has four kids by four different women and neither supports nor sees them
Then why didn't any of these women sue him for child support?

What are the Penalties for Failing to Pay Child Support?
Georgia carries steep penalties for parents who refuse to pay legally-mandated child support. They include, but are not limited to:
- Jail: A judge can order a parent that has past due payments to spend time in jail. This is usually saved as a last resort, because a parent in jail cannot earn money to make payments.
- Driver’s license suspension or denial of driver’s license renewal: A parent who is in noncompliance with court-ordered child support payments can lose their driver’s license. The state enforces this penalty once a parent is more than 60 days past due on their payments.
- Professional or Business License revocation: In Georgia, failing to pay child support can lead to the suspension of a professional license, such as a license to practice medicine, an engineering license, or a teaching license, etc. It can also lead to the suspension of a business license until payments are made.
- Wage garnishment: If a parent does not pay their court-ordered child support, then it is legal to garnish wages from their paycheck. In fact, up to 50% of that parent’s earnings can be garnished for child support payment.
