Remember Al Pirro’s tax conviction

October

Why does Jeanine Pirro keep going after Assistant U.S. Attorney Elliot Jacobson by name?

It’s an odd strategy.

It would be to her advantage to denigrate the U.S. Attorney’s Office. If she can make the investigation into whether she tried to tape her husband, Al, look like a partisan witch hunt, all the better for her.

Jacobson is a Democrat and he is the man who led the prosecution of Al Pirro for tax evasion seven years ago.

And that’s just it. A jury convicted Pirro. He went to prison. It wasn’t an unwarranted intrusion into the private lives of Al and Jeanine Pirro. It was investigation into the finances of a man who was cheating on his taxes. Tax forms that she signed.

Now why does Jeanine Pirro keep reminding us of that?
