In 2024, Charles Littlejohn, a 38-year-old former IRS contractor from Washington, D.C., was sentenced to five years in prison for the leaks.

While the leaks began with Donald Trump's data, investigations later revealed that Littlejohn stole and leaked the private financial information of hundreds of thousands of wealthy Americans, including prominent billionaires like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos.

Littlejohn's defense argued he acted out of a personal sense of public interest, believing that taxpayers had a right to know how easily the nation's wealthiest individuals could legally get out of paying taxes.

When Littlejohn gets out in 2029, the man deserves a party. Not all heroes wear capes.
