How Abramoff Did It; First Photos Made Public
Photos of one of the infamous Jack Abramoff golf junkets to Scotland were made public in federal court Tuesday.

Abramoff, a former lobbyist who has pleaded guilty to bribery charges, says he used such extravagant trips to get officials to take action on behalf of his clients.

Included in the photos is Congressman Bob Ney (R-OH), who law enforcement officials say is facing possible indictment. Ney has denied any wrongdoing.
