Abramoff will start serving time on June 29th at two in the afternoon. That’s the word from the Florida judge in the fraud prosecution against him. Remember he’s yet to be sentenced for his role in the bribery investigation – that won’t happen for a number of months. He’ll likely end up with a total sentence of 9 1/2 to 11 years.

As for which prison he’ll end up in, it’s unclear, although his lawyers are lobbying for somewhere near his home in Maryland, according to Roll Call.
