Clemency Request 'Pending' for Leaker of Trump's and Others' Taxes

The Biden administration is formally considering commuting the sentence of the convicted felon who stole and leaked incoming President Trump's tax records along with those of thousands of other taxpayers, in the biggest tax data heist in U.S. history.
A search of the Justice Department's pardon database reveals Charles Edward Littlejohn -- who just began his five-year sentence in May -- has been assigned a clemency case number. It says a petition for "commutation of sentence" was recently sought and is "pending."

National Legal and Policy Center counsel Paul Kamenar doubts Biden will grant the request, "especially since he already pardoned Hunter on tax charges. This would further undermine his support of the rule of law." He added that it would also overrule the sentencing meted out by a Democratic judge he appointed.
"DOJ already let him [Littlejohn] off with a slap on the wrist by allowing him to plead guilty to just a single felony count for reportedly leaking thousands of Americans' tax returns, " said former Senate Judiciary Committee chief investigative counsel Jason Foster, who co-founded Empower Oversight, a Washington watchdog group. "If President Biden commuted his sentence, it'd be like letting him off the hook all over again."

The IRS recently sent letters to the thousands of victims of Littlejohn's theft, noting the breach of their confidential tax files was unacceptable but that the full scope of what he disclosed is still unknown. The IRS has already settled one lawsuit filed by billionaire Kenneth Griffin. Other victims are suing Booz Allen for its failure to monitor Littlejohn while he worked at the IRS.
Commentary:
What other tax payer information was released by this person? My understanding about any the release of tax information is that more than one person has to okay the access to the information. In other words, Littlejohn had help.
This would great if Pedo Joe’s handlers decided to pardon this stooge.
The IRS and the US Census Bureau wouldn’t have a leg to stand on when they tried to claim that “their records are inviolate” in the future.
To release him by commuting his sentence is criminal
Neo-Marxist Democrat strategy is that of deception and lawfare. None of which the founding fathers petitioned for, because the Republic can't survive evil.
