At least David Safavian got a golf trip to Scotland. Roger Stillwell, a former Interior Department official, was sentenced Tuesday to two years probation and a fine of $1,000 after he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of filing a false financial statement. Stillwell's crime? Failing to report that superlobbyist Jack Abramoff gave him four tickets to a Washington Redskins game and two tickets to a Simon and Garfunkel concert.
