Pablo Carrillo
Pablo E. Carrillo (born 1969) is a one-time admiralty lawyer from New Orleans, LA, who is U.S. Senator John McCain’s chief of staff. In that capacity, Carrillo led McCain’s investigations of the Jack Abramoff tribal lobbying scandal and the Boeing tanker scandal, which McCain referred to extensively throughout his campaign.()
==Role in Jack Abramoff Tribal lobbying scandal==
Carrillo served, as The Washington Monthly described in May 2006, as “McCain's wingman on Indian Affairs”, as his Chief Investigative Counsel on the Senate Indian Affairs Committee. There, Carrillo led a high-profile investigation into allegations that flamboyant GOP lobbyist Jack Abramoff and his partner Michael Scanlon, a former aide of House Leader Tom Delay, bilked several Indian tribes out of tens of millions of dollars. Holding what Vanity Fair described as “five gory, highly publicized () in 2004 and 2005”() on that issue, Carrillo’s investigation first exposed Abramoff and Scanlon’s scheme to defraud these tribes and led to, according to The Washington Post, “one of the widest ranging federal corruption investigations in decades,” which “may help McCain, a likely contender for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008, reinforce his image as a Washington reformer and a proponent of campaign finance reform.”
That investigation was also described by Roll Call as “set() a standard for what Congressional oversight should be, but often isn’t” and the New York Post as giving rise to possibly “the worst Washington corruption scandal since the Abscam sting nailed six congressmen and a senator 25 years ago.” It helped expose wrongdoing that recently led to, among other things, guilty pleas from Abramoff, Michael Scanlon, a US congressman, and two senior congressional staffers on fraud and public corruption charges; a guilty plea from the head of a bogus non-profit organization for lying to Congress and tax fraud; the conviction of the Bush White House’s chief of procurement policy and a former deputy Interior secretary for, among other things, lying to Congress; the development of lobbying reform legislative initiatives; and the publication of a major Senate report, called “‘Gimme Five’—Investigation of Tribal Lobbying Matters”.()
