Only 27 Months huh?!Jun 18th, 2007 - 20:44:47

I am from Houston and was living there during the Enron fiasco. Many people lost their lives due to these men. Homes, pensions, and savings invested in enron stock were lost due to these greedy underhanded men. This act of dishonesty and crookedness cost Enron employees deeply and some have been unable to recover since then. 27 months is a slap on the wrist in comparison to the damage done to these poor people. I guess to the justice system, someone who falls asleep at the wheel and accidentally kills murdering one person and ruining the lives of a few is a heck of a lot worse than stealing from 5,000 and destroying the lives and families of many more. But of course, The accidental murderer does not have the high priced lawyers on his side. This is the Justice system at it's finest....Corrupt I say!
