HOUSTON (CNNMoney.com) - Enron former chief executive Jeffrey Skilling and
founder Kenneth Lay were found guilty Thursday of conspiracy and fraud in
the granddaddy of all corporate fraud cases.
On the sixth day of deliberations, a jury of eight women and four men
convicted the former executives of misleading the public about the true
financial health of Enron, whose collapse in late 2001 symbolized the wave
of corporate fraud that swept the United States early this decade.
Skilling was found guilty of 20 of 28 counts against him.
Lay was found guilty on all six counts of conspiracy and fraud.
In a separate bench trial, Judge Sim Lake ruled Lay was guilty of four
counts of fraud and false statements.
