"I Know More...And the Truth is Worse"

Somebody I'd never heard of, Kevin Ring, resigned abruptly yesterday from Indianapolis-based law firm Barnes & Thornburg. And that ain't good for someone I have heard of - Rep. John Doolittle. King is a former aide to Doolittle, who, coincidentally, had his home raided by the FBI yesterday. King is also a former employee of Jack Abramoff.


It looks possible, says TPM Muckraker, that King is now singing a song to the FBI. That's what former aides to about-to-go-under Republican congressmen, who were also former allies to Jack Abramoff, who also happened to work at Indianapolis-based law firm Barnes & Thornburg before they resigned abruptly - do.

And what could King be saying?

Dengre digs up an email Mr. Ring wrote to a friend in 2004:

I know more than the article and the truth is worse.

The article in question (top of the list of several) was about...the Abramoff scandal.

More on Doolittle here. More on King here.
