Well, the Govt has a tough case. Skilling is dead. That one is easy. But the big dog, Lay, allegedly has a solid defense. The articles I've read suggest his doddering elder stateman act has a nugget of truth to it. I'll bet his lawyers are poring over the transcripts of Bernie Ebbers shitting the bed in his trial to make sure Ken makes none of the same mistakes.
Skilling, however, will rot longer than any white collar defendant in history. He can't even trade his testimony against Lay for a light sentence. Using Skilling would kill the govt's case and create sympathy for Lay.
Skilling's got nowwhere to point the finger. He. Is. Dead.
And he deserves it.
