WASHINGTON (AP) The U.S. Treasury Department has cut its contracts with Booz Allen Hamilton, after a former contractor who worked for the firm was charged and subsequently imprisoned for leaking tax information to news outlets about thousands of the countrys wealthiest people, including President Donald Trump.
The latest move is in line with Trump administration efforts to exact retribution on perceived enemies of the president and his allies.
In 2024, former IRS contractor Charles Edward Littlejohn of Washington, D.C. who worked for Booz Allen Hamilton was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty to leaking tax information about Trump and others to news outlets.
Littlejohn gave data to The New York Times and ProPublica between 2018 and 2020 in leaks that appeared to be unparalleled in the IRSs history, prosecutors said.
