Abramoff came up with a way for his marks to continue paying him: the
Tigua Elder Legacy Project. Abramoff would arrange, at no cost to the
tribe, a life-insurance policy for every Tigua 75 or older. When those
elders died, the death benefits would be paid to Eshkol Academy, a
private school Abramoff had founded near Washington. Eshkol, in turn,
would then pay Abramoff’s fee to continue lobbying on behalf of the
surviving Tiguas. Morbid opportunism disguised as charity: Each dead
Tigua would be cash in the lobbyist’s pocket.
The Tiguas declined the offer. “It felt uncomfortable,” a Tigua
official told the Senate committee last November.
A few months later Abramoff was pitching a similar concept, this time
aimed at black churches, to the reptilian Ralph Reed. It didn't go
anywhere, but apparently Reed was interested: “Yeah,” a former
associate of Reed’s says, “it sounds like Jack approached Reed about
mortgaging old black people.”
