Safavian Trial on 18th HoleWell, today’s the day. We could have our first verdict of the Abramoff scandal by late afternoon.
Closing statements were this morning, continuing on into early afternoon. The prosecution will be telling jurors about what a liar and golfhound David Safavian is. And the defense will spin a tale of a loyal friend deceived by a devious golfing buddy.
The judge will then charge the jury, and then they’re off to deliberate. Who knows how long they’ll take? — though I think the smart money is on them returning sometime today.
We’ll bring you word of the verdict as soon as we hear.
