A former U.S. Treasury Department official has been sentenced to jail for leaking thousands of pages of anti-Trump financial information to the news media.
Natalie Mayflower Sours Edwards was a senior adviser in the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
She was allowed to plead to a single count of a conspiracy crime for leaking over 2,000 confidential banking documents called “suspicious activity reports."
Edwards was reportedly sentenced to six months in jail.
That's more time than a former FBI attorney received after admitting to doctoring a document to illegally obtain a wiretap against former Trump campaign associate Carter Page. That attorney, Kevin Clinesmith, got 12 months of probation for his crime.
And that was harsher punishment than given to former FBI Director James Comey. An Inspector General investigation recommended Comey be prosecuted for improperly leaking anti-Trump information to the news media. However, the Dept. of Justice where Comey worked declined to prosecute him.

And when the President is indicted on 27 counts we can be damn sure that every one of these leaked documents will be part of the indictment. I think that’s called jury tampering.
2000 documents and one charge? Should be 2000 charges!
With a name like that, she must think she’s a Spanish conquistador. Arrogance towards the law is part of knowing you’re part of the protected class.

Maybe she was confused by the dept title and thought she was supposed to make sure crimes were committed.
Saw her pic. Definitely guilty.
Someone will instruct Joe’s dementia to pardon and promote her. Any takers?
Soon to become an MSNBC regular.
“six months in jail.”
Obviously being a Democrat if the charge was murder she probably would have gotten probation.
And the so called “insurrectionists” have languished in solitary confinement for going on 6 months without being charged. Almost makes mw want to be a Democrat.
She sours my stomach.
Definitely. She looks like she would fit right in as the wife of that Maddow guy.
Here is a white person the psycho psychologist could shoot in the head..........
Should get one charge for every document.
There are likely thousands of people like her in government and corporations. We’re going to need more jail cells.
“six months in jail.”??
Does that rule out the President being able to sue HER personally??
If those were the tax records of any OTHER private citizen, they would be able to sue ... right?
A tennis court sentence no doubt.
