FYI

Today on AOL there is an article entitled: Skilling Asks Judge to Toss Guilty Verdict.

In it they mention that Fastow stole millions of dollars from Enron whereas Lay, Skilling, and others did not. They were convicted of conspiracy and lots of other stuff but not of stealing. (Basically they were convicted because they didn't turn on their colleagues.)

Fastow was the mastermind of the scams and actually stole millions from the company. He gets off because he testified against the others. He and his wife's family still have that money.

The MSM don't want to talk about Fastow getting off because they know the public wants someone to blame.

Tens of millions even, but not billions. Thanks.

He didn't do it in a vacuum, they knew what he was doing.
