Team Abramoff Spent Millions On Sports Suites
The lobbying team headed by imprisoned ex-lobbyist Jack Abramoff spent more than $5.1 million on suites at D.C.-area sporting venues from 2000 to 2004, according to an estimate by the FBI.
The estimate of expenses at Camden Yards (home of the Baltimore Orioles), FedEx Field (home of the Washington Redskins) and the MCI Center (now the Verizon Center, home of the Washington Wizards and Washington Capitals), were submitted as evidence in the trial of former Abramoff associate Kevin Ring. He is accused of using event tickets and meals to influence and reward public officials for taking acts for his clients. Estimates did not include food and additional tickets purchased by the lobbying team at the venues.
The prosecution has now completed its presentation of evidence. The defense has submitted statements to impeach claims made in the prosecution's case, but the defense will not call any witnesses. Closing statements are expected on Monday.

Scandel after scandel for Abramoff.Over several years, Taylor's campaign received approximately $3,000 total [need source] in donations from now convincted lobbyist Jack Abramoff, his firm, and one of his clients. Several editorials in the Asheville Citizen-Times have called on Taylor to explain his relationship with Abramoff, which he has so far chosen not to do, other than to claim he did nothing wrong and wasn't going to give up the money he received from Abramoff.
