Skilling has yet to be convicted. I think you mean Fastow.:)

Does the federal guideline of 10-24 months include actual prison time, or total length of sentence, including time spent on community service?

In the span of just two weeks, federal prosecutors have indicted two of the iconic figures in the corporate scandals that cascaded in the aftermath of the 1990s stock-market boom.

Last month, Jeffrey Skilling, the former chief executive of Enron Corp., was handcuffed and brought to court in Houston on charges of securities fraud. And then last week in New York, Bernard Ebbers, former chief executive of WorldCom Inc., was charged with his own versions of securities fraud.

"The fact that you bring criminal indictments against these two major CEOs, Skilling and Ebbers, will remind all executives tempted to stray from the strait and narrow that there are real consequences to their actions," he said.
