Sweeney to enter rehab, says lawyer

TPM:


As we told you, former New York GOP congressman -- and Jack Abramoff buddy -- John Sweeney last week was charged with a felony DUI after he told officers who stopped his car that he was in "big trouble" and refused to take a roadside sobriety test. But later in the week, a local New York news channel reported that Sweeney's court appearance, scheduled for last Friday, had been postponed.

Why? Reports Capital News 9:

[T]he court date was postponed at the request of [Sweeney's] lawyer who said Sweeney plans to enter rehab.
