Has a distant relative of mine been hanging out with bad company ?

I wonder when I read this in The Washington Post
Five
years ago, Abramoff, Kidan and former Reagan administration official Ben Waldman of Springfield, purchased SunCruz from Boulis, 51, the millionaire founder of the popular Miami Subs sandwich shop chain. Abramoff and Kidan have been friends since their days together as College Republicans in Washington.

In October 2000, in the midst of the infighting with Boulis, Kidan turned to a friend of 15 years, Moscatiello, who began visiting Kidan's condominium and golfing with Kidan and Waldman. Moscatiello in 1983 was indicted on federal heroin-trafficking charges along with Gene Gotti, brother of John Gotti, then the head of the Gambino crime family.




I have the greatest respect for the Gambino family and no inclination to find a horse's head in my bed, but college Republicans yuck.

I remain your humble Blogger Robert Waldmann
