but a direct report supervisor should have known. It appears that now, some of the highest IRS officials are clearing saying they did not know or will plead the Fifth Amendment not to incriminate themselves. I find that
interesting.
In the past, I have talked to people while they were under investigation. I discovered that those who say they are innocent or did not know are truly innocent. Those who stated that they were advised by their lawyers not to discuss the investigation with anyone are guilty as charged. Innocent people are eager to prove it, and those who are guilty will try to hide it. It just seems to work out that way. When a high-level government official pleads the
Fifth to Congress, they are guilty. I could be wrong, but I doubt
it.
