Why the IRS Apologized to Billionaire Ken Griffin

The IRS issued an apology for the leak of thousands of tax documents, including those of billionaire Ken Griffin, which occurred between 2018 and 2020. The apology followed a lawsuit Griffin filed against the IRS in December 2022 over the unauthorized disclosure of his tax information by a contractor, Charles Littlejohn. Littlejohn, who shared the data with the press, received a five-year prison sentence.

Griffin, with a net worth estimated at $42 billion, credited his team for securing an outcome aimed at enhancing the protection of American taxpayers.
