Tom Goldstein, the legendary Supreme Court legal analyst and co-founder of SCOTUSblog, just got six years in prison for tax evasion and mortgage fraud—hiding $25 million in income and lying to lenders to fund his high-stakes poker habit. The trial was explosive, even featuring Tobey Maguire testifying about a gambling debt Goldstein helped cover. Despite his defense’s plea for leniency based on addiction and financial ruin, the jury sided with prosecutors, who argued that elite professionals like Goldstein must be held to a higher standard when greed and recklessness collide.
