FORSAKING his trademark fedora for a baseball cap, lobbyist
extraordinaire Jack Abramoff walked out of a Florida courtroom,
despite having just been sentenced to five years' jail for conspiracy and fraud.

Wearing a double-breasted suit and the cap, with his wife on his arm, the
one-time King of K Street Washington's lobbying centre was allowed to stay free
for the next few months because of his co-operation with an investigation into
the buying of congressmen.

Abramoff told the court: "I am much chastened and profoundly remorseful.
I can only hope that the Almighty and those whom I have wronged will forgive me my trespasses."
