38. It's an odd knot

It's kind of funny how well groomed the knot is. Just when a thread comes a little loose, it seems to get clipped somehow from somewhere.

There's the DC madam who was wrapped around this axle after servicing some high stakes poker games (well her stakes turned out to be pretty high)

Then there's the assistant prosecutor who was hired off the case by the firm handling the Lewis defense. She got a different prize than the madam got.

I'm pretty sure I don't have anywhere near the whole picture here. Between black Jack Abramoff and the Dukester lots has to have been buried. Neither of those cases reached their real potential.
