The L.A. Times is wrong and right. Colwell did not "officially" join Enron until 2000. It also leads the reader to beleive that Colwell had something to do with setting up Raptor but it was actually set up before then and Causey was just telling Colwell why it was set up. If you read the quote that way, it is quite different. Colwell was cooperating with the Feds from DAY ONE and never thought he would be indicted. He essentially took a wrist slap from the SEC and gave up one of his bonuses.

Thanks for the info. Next week is shaping up to possibly be an interesting week. Now we have Mrs. Fastow discussing a plea agreement, Ken Lay turning over documents that he had fought to keep, and they have indicted Dan Boyle in two different courts on the same charge. Plus all the guilty pleas that have yet to be sentenced. Glisan may have some company and then again he may turn out to be the biggest patsy in memory.

Balderdash. If not Raptor, then it was another set up or another fraudulent vehicle. There were thousands of these fraudulent entities parked offshore to hide Enron's debt. There's plenty of blame to go around. All of these thieves have something to hide. Even if his defense is that he was in the wrong place at the wrong time, it is a crime not to report your knowledge that a crime is being committed.

Watta bunch of patsies to have allowed themselves-- through their greed--to fall for the grasping Fastow's criminal schemes. No decent, law-abiding person would have participated in this fraud. They must all pay the price.
