An Iowa attorney helped facilitate a fraudulent real estate transaction in which the sales price was overstated by $55,000. The attorney subsequently pled guilty to misprision of a felony, see 18 U.S.C. § 4 (2006), and received probation. We are now asked to decide what ethical rules he violated and what the consequences should be.
