The entrance of the Federal Correctional

Cumberland, UNITED STATES: The entrance of the Federal Correctional Institution is shown in Cumberland, Maryland, about 130 miles (209 km) west of Washington, DC, 15 November 2006, where lobbyist Jack Abramoff entered the secluded federal prison facility. A former super-lobbyist whose central role in a sweeping corruption scandal helped Republicans lose control of Congress began serving his prison sentence for fraud 15 November. Jack Abramoff, 47, pleaded guilty earlier this year to defrauding lenders in a Florida gambling boat deal and was sentenced to nearly six years in prison for wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud and mail fraud. His March conviction for the crimes, which were tied to a number of questionable lobbying activities his office conducted, gave Democrats an opportunity to smear Republicans as fostering a "culture of corruption" while they controlled Congress and the White House.
