The golf extravaganza will soon be at an end, and we’re within a week of the first verdict in the Abramoff scandal.
The prosecution finished up with their case yesterday, and David Safavian’s lawyer says she’ll be wrapping up her case today – she’s only calling a few witnesses. That means we’ll be hearing closing arguments as early as next week.
And soon after, jurors will get to decide whether Safavian lied when he told ethics officials that Abramoff had no business with the General Services Administration, where Safavian was a top official, when Safavian jetted off to Scotland with him.
