Lynched: Revised and Updated
Published in 2011, Lynched broke the conspiracy hatched by rival lobbyists close to Sen. John McCain who set up Jack Abramoff for criminal prosecution by a partisan Department of Justice, spurring the most extensive federal corruption probe to grace Capitol Hill. The revised edition, published in 2017, widens the lens to incorporate curious machinations surrounding the Seminole Tribe of Florida, which pitted Abramoff against Donald Trump in their quest for casino business, with one ending up defamed and incarcerated and the other becoming President of the United States. This updated book reveals political hard ball at its most unscrupulous along with chilling parallels between the Abramoff and Enron scandals and why the Abramoff scandal deserves a second look.
