Ex-IRS Ethics Office Lawyer Disbarred For Ethics Violations
From TaxProf Paul Caron:
A lawyer who worked in the IRS ethics office was disbarred Thursday by the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, which concluded she misappropriated a client's funds from a case she handled in private practice, broke a number of ethics rules and showed "reckless disregard for the truth" in misleading a disbarment panel looking into the matter.The lawyer, Takisha Brown, reportedly had bragged that she would never be punished because her boss would protect her, but an IRS spokesman said Wednesday that she was no longer an employee at the agency.

Guess she didn't have enough damming evidence of Oval Office involvement to protect her from taking the fall.

The IRS has an ethics office? That's like the Klan having a race relations office.

Her mistake was violating ethics in a private case and not on behalf of the IRS.

Now let's mix corporations with politicians and
Voila!
Okay, okay, it's not really much of a surprise.
