A man named Charles Littlejohn, who used to work for the US tax agency, has been given a five-year prison sentence for illegally leaking Donald Trump's personal tax information to the media. In addition to his jail time, Littlejohn will have to spend three years under supervision after his release and pay a fine of $5,000 for his wrongdoing. Littlejohn committed this offense while working as a contractor for the nationwide Internal Revenue Service, stealing tax records of numerous affluent individuals. A judge described this act as an assault on the fundamental principles of our constitutional democracy during Monday's proceedings.
