Abramoff gets 5 years 10 months

A federal judge has sentenced former lobbyist Jack Abramoff to five years and 10 months in prison in his Florida fraud case.


but...

Abramoff's sentence won’t start immediately so he and Kidan can continue cooperating in a Washington corruption investigation and a Florida probe into the murder of former SunCruz owner Konstantinos “Gus” Boulis.


and...

The same week Abramoff pleaded guilty to the SunCruz fraud, he entered guilty pleas to three federal charges as part of a wide-ranging corruption probe that could involve up to 20 members of Congress and aides, including former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas. No date has been set for his sentencing in that case.


It's all here
