Jurors Begin Deliberation in Enron Trial

HeadlineMay 18, 2006

Back in the United States, jurors have begun deliberating in the fraud and conspiracy trial of former Enron executives Ken Lay and Jeffrey Skilling. The two are accused of overseeing one of the worst cases of corporate corruption in US history. On Wednesday, Lay was questioned as he left the courtroom. Ken Lay: “I think we’ve told a lot of it, it’s just too bad that so much of it continues to be distorted and twisted, but I guess that’s just all part of our system. But we’ll keep working at it. I think we’ll get as fair a trial as we’re going to get.”
