Wife of President Trump’s Ethics Attorney Caught Having Sex with Prisoner
by Monte McCoin
The wife of an attorney who serves as an ethics advisor to President Donald Trump’s revocable trust – an entity intended to separate Trump’s business and political activities – was arrested on September 5, 2017 after she was caught having sex with a prisoner at Virginia’s Fauquier County Adult Detention Center.
Teresa Jo Burchfield, 53, was detained when she was found in the midst of “suspicious” activity in the backseat of her car in the jail’s parking lot. She was arrested and charged with misdemeanor unauthorized delivery when deputies discovered vitamin pills, cigarettes and other contraband she had allegedly given to a 23-year-old, unidentified trustee prisoner, who told police that he and Burchfield had been meeting for a month. She was subsequently released on $5,000 bond.
According to a criminal complaint obtained by the Fauquier Times, “[Burchfield] was caught in the backseat of her vehicle with an inmate. When the inmate exited the vehicle, he handed me a bag of brown pills (capsules), that he claims to be workout pills.”
Teresa’s husband, attorney Bobby R. Burchfield, is a member of the Republican National Lawyers Association and served during the presidencies of George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush. In January 2017, Trump named Bobby Burchfield as the outside ethics advisor to his revocable trust.
