Charles Littlejohn, the ex-IRS contractor responsible for leaking former President Trump's tax returns, was sentenced to five years in prison on Monday.

Judge Ana Reyes condemned Littlejohn's actions when handing down the sentence, saying the leak was "an intolerable attack on our constitutional democracy." The sentence also includes 36 months of supervised release and a $5,000 fine.

"The press tells us Democracy dies in darkness. It also dies in lawlessness," the judge said. "There are numerous lawful means to bring things to light. Trump was under no obligation to expose his returns. People could vote for someone else. They could run against him."

Federal prosecutors said Littlejohn sought his job as an IRS consultant specifically for the purpose of leaking Trump's returns in 2019. Littlejohn had done work for Booz Allen from 2008 to 2013, but he returned to the company as an IRS consultant in 2017.
