I doubt the jury will hold one (slightly) unusual suit against a government lawyer, but I also wouldn't take the chance. Don't risk anything with a jury. This may be especially true when trying to prove false tax reports - you don't want the jury to be able to think that you may entertain some extravagances yourself, especially in the 8th Circuit, which will probably have some conservative folks on the jury.
(Disclosure - I don't practice in front of juries, but I've always heard to tone it down in front of juries in fear of alienating them.)
