The Tyco boys were convicted!

L. Dennis Kozlowski, the former chief executive of Tyco International Ltd., and a symbol of executive greed and extravagance, was convicted Friday for looting millions of dollars from his one-time employer.

Kozlowski, 58, and Mark Swartz, the company's former finance chief, 44, were found guilty in a New York State Supreme Court on all but one of 31 charges of grand larceny, securities fraud, conspiracy and falsifying documents. The trial was the second for the two men after their first ended in a mistrial.

1. Wow. That is a surprise. I truly thought they were going to get away with
that toga party of the millenia. Hope they rot in jail.
