I find it a bit strange that Whitehead was represtented by Greenberg Traurig LLP’s Washington, D.C.

Have a look at this:

Four former Greenberg Traurig lobbyists besides disgraced former colleague Jack Abramoff took improper side payments in violation of company policy and have been referred to the Justice Department, a top law firm executive has disclosed.

The four other lobbyists now being questioned are Kevin Ring, John Van Horne, Michael Smith and Stephanie Leger.

Ring is now a lobbyist for Barnes & Thornburg in Washington and still represents Indian tribes. Van Horne started a two-person Washington firm called GHT Law. Smith is a lobbyist for Cornerstone Government Affairs in Washington, and Leger now works as the Washington-based director of federal relations for Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco on hurricane recovery issues."

So instead of going to jail, they just change names or companies?

Hey Troll,

Thanks for confirming what we already knew: that this ruling really hurt you and your pals at CAIR.

Have a nice day!
