Charles Edward Littlejohn, for example, admitted Thursday he pilfered 15 years' worth of sensitive tax returns from thousands of filers.
A sign outside the Internal Revenue Service building is seen on May 4, 2021, in Washington. A former contractor for the Internal Revenue Service has been charged with leaking tax information to news outlets about a government official and thousands …The left shamelessly protects its own. Charles Edward Littlejohn, for example, admitted Thursday he pilfered 15 years’ worth of sensitive tax returns from thousands of filers.
Littlejohn used an elaborate subterfuge to sneak Mr. Trump’s tax returns out of a high-security facility so he could forward the records to The New York Times, which proceeded to publish a story with the headline “Long-concealed records show Trump’s chronic losses and years of tax avoidance” just five weeks before the election.
The strategic accessing of tens of thousands of tax returns involved so many people that U.S. District Judge Ana C. Reyes waived the Crime Victims’ Rights Act notification provision saying, “the number of potential victims in this case makes it impracticable to provide all of the victims the rights provided under” the law.
When federal prosecutors went after Mr. Trump, they contorted the law to come up with 91 felony counts, purported crimes of which they could not identify a single victim. But Littlejohn’s trespass against thousands somehow merits a solitary count of improperly disclosing tax return information. The longest possible penalty Judge Reyes, who was appointed by President Biden, could impose is five years in prison, but sentencing guidelines can reduce that to a few months at most, or none at all.
