Ken Lay facing 165 years. Something to ponder....Will he roll on Cheney?
Think about it for a second. Now that he has been found guilty, a wise prosector might suggest that the sentence could be lightened by coming clean about just exactly was discussed by the energy cartel and Unka Dick....

Methinks there are some VERY nervous folks at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave this afternoon....

5. Yes! Yes! Yes!
The beautiful predictable fact about evil and greedy people is that they will ultimately bring each other down.

6. Why would he?
Edited on Thu May-25-06 11:40 AM by davepc
He just needs to sit tight in his white-collar country club federal "prison" and hang till Bush pardons him.

He'll do that two years standing on his head.

If he rolls on Cheney or anybody else, no pardon.

7. One possible scenario..
Cheney will put extreme pressure on Dubya to pardon Lay.
That should keep 'im quiet.

8. Oh, I really, really hope they offer that deal
Although either way, he'll probably die in prison. But it might be tempting to take Dickieboy down with him.

11. Disclose who was at Energy Bigs mtg w/Cheney + what they discussed
Like mapping out the oil field in Iraq and cutting up the pie and maybe Kenny Boy will role Arnold as well who met with Kenny Boy in LA before the recall. Was the Enron induced Calif energy crises in 2001 a plot to recall Grey Davis, bring in Arnold and maybe even get the CAlif Sec of State's job turned over to a Repug who would bring in Diebold - all has happened since Cheny met with the Oil Bigs.

I have to go my phone is ringing - there's a faint tapping sound in the receiver - ah Bye!

12. The Energy Task Force, yes...
of course. That's what I was thinking of, too.

As an ordinary American citizen, I'm not too delicate for the truth. In fact, I feel this overwhelming need to know.

13. Skilling facing 165 years, Lay facing 40?
Edited on Thu May-25-06 12:21 PM by louis-t
40 or 45, gotta look.

You're right- 165, forgot about the bank fraud part. Maximum sentence. Read that it's unlikely he will get more than 6 mo. on each charge because money was repaid. Skilling at 185.
