Send Abramoff to Jail!

Who's going to the big house now?

Abramoff, the Jackster, our favorite wannabe gangsta. Apparently, he may stop giving the goods.

Federal prosecutors are pushing for Jack Abramoff to be sentenced as soon as next week on charges of bribery and fraud, fearing that he will stop cooperating with their corruption probes if he is forced to go to prison far from the capital as the result of a related case.

Abramoff’s lawyers and Justice Department counsels filed a motion last week in the U.S. District Court in Washington to advance Abramoff’s sentencing to Nov. 17, two days after he is to turn himself in on a separate guilty plea in Florida.
