ABAJ: Federal prosecutor admits she listened to recordings of attorney-client conversations, filing says by Debra Cassens Weiss:

A federal prosecutor is no longer employed by the U.S. Attorney’s office in Kansas City, Kansas, after admitting to her supervisor that she had listened to recorded attorney-client conversations, according to court documents.

The special assistant prosecutor, Erin Tomasic, admitted that she had listened to multiple recorded conversations between a Leavenworth inmate and his lawyer, and one conversation between another female inmate at the prison and her lawyer, according to a notice (PDF) filed by federal prosecutors on June 19. The Kansas City Star and the Associated Press have reports.
