Bad news for bad guys
So Enron's Jeffrey Skilling and Kenneth Lay are soon to be the smartest guys in minimum security prison. Maybe the verdict isn't all that shocking, but it is hopefully a little gratifying to all the people who were ripped off by Enron.



Professor Bainbridge (http://www.professorbainbridge.com/) has devoted his law blog to analyzing the verdict. He notes that, like Martha Stewart, Lay and Skilling got in trouble not for breaking the law but for lying about breaking the law.





The Wall Street Journal Law Blog (http://blogs.wsj.com/law/2006/05/25/lay/) says Lay's real downfall was acting like such a jerk on the witness stand. If he had taken a little responsibility for the collapse of Enron, they might have cut him some slack.



The Sentencing Law and Policy Blog (http://sentencing.typepad.com/sentencing_law_and_policy/2006/05/firstcut_enron_.html) offers up that Lay and Skilling could get 360 to life!
