Jack Abramoff is back in the workforce. The disgraced former lobbyist has landed a new job, just weeks after he was released from a prison camp in western Maryland.
Abramoff, who served more than three years in prison for fraud, corruption, and conspiracy, will once again be dealing with dough -- this time, of the pizza variety. Abramoff is the latest employee at Tov Pizza in Baltimore.
“We’re all Jews, we’re all on the same team,” the kosher pizzeria’s owner, Ron Rosenbluth, told the Baltimore Jewish Times. “I’m more than happy to help a fellow Jew in any way I can.”
Abramoff landed the position through a halfway house. Rosenbluth said he’s hired halfway house residents in the past, but we doubt any of them made headlines when they worked there.
This new job is actually right up Abramoff’s alley. He owned a kosher restaurant here in Washington before his legal troubles.
