Lay, Skilling found guilty at Enron trial
HOUSTON - Former Enron Corp. chiefs Kenneth Lay and Jeffrey Skilling were convicted Thursday of conspiracy to commit securities and wire fraud in one of the biggest business scandals in U.S. history.

The verdict put the blame for the 2001 demise of the high-profile energy trader, once the nation’s seventh-largest company, squarely on its top two executives. It came in the sixth day of deliberations following a federal criminal trial that lasted nearly four months.

Anybody want to make bets on when the pardon will come?

1. I don't think there will be a pardon
Any political person knows how that looks, and I don't really think Bush gives a damn about anybody but himself.
