Federal prosecutors have charged an IRS contractor who worked for the agency from 2018 to 2020 for unlawfully obtaining and disseminating the tax details of a high-ranking public official and numerous affluent Americans to media outlets.
According to court documents and an official press release from the Department of Justice, Charles Littlejohn, 38, of Washington, D.C., stole tax return information associated with a high-ranking government official, referred to as Public Official A. He then disclosed this information to a news organization identified as News Organization 1.
A source familiar with the matter informed CNN that the unnamed official mentioned in the legal documents is former President Donald Trump.
Littlejohn didn’t stop at stealing the former President’s tax information.
