The Seattle Times: Politics: GOP lobbyist indicted in fraud case

The Seattle Times: Politics: GOP lobbyist indicted in fraud case: "MIAMI � Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff and a business partner were indicted by a federal grand jury in Fort Lauderdale yesterday, charged with five counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy in their purchase of a fleet of Florida gambling boats from a businessman who was later killed in a gangland-style hit."

Too bad this won't take down DeLay (because of a technicality), but at least one corrupt lobbyist is gone.
