Fastow and wife to plead guilty -- will get ten year sentence

[ShimokitaJer]

We got one!!! And that means we're going to get others. This -almost- restores my faith in the justice system.

-snip-
Andrew Fastow, the former chief financial officer, is expected to plead guilty in return for a 10-year prison term. His likely cooperation with prosecutors could start other dominoes falling -- and either clear or condemn ex-Enron CEO Jeff Skilling and Chairman Ken Lay.

Andrew Fastow's cooperation is expected to quickly lead to the arrest of Rick Causey, the former chief accounting officer of the company who was mentioned by job title in the original complaint against Andrew Fastow. Causey was set to surrender to the Federal Bureau of Investigation last Thursday and may now wind up doing so this week.

2. rich white guys

Isn't it great that rich white guys (and their wives) get to arrange their criminal lives around their kids? You think the crack dealer, prostitute or pick-pocket get to arrange their jail-time around their kids. I guess stealing millions of dollars isn't the crime it seems to be...

3. how this will be played

You'll hear Bush's campaign playing this as them bringing white-collar criminals to justice that were allowed to commit their crimes during Clinton!

Wait and see.

9. ROTFLMAO

5. I don't think so

Rove hasn't been too successful in denying the buddy-buddy relationship between Bush and Kenny Boy. The public is still making that connection, even if it has been ignored by the media for the past year. Whether or not Lay does time, I doubt Bush can disassociate himself from the crime.

7. He already has

With the help of the left wing media, he's been getting a free ride since it happened. Remember, the Democratic Party got alot of illicit cash from Enron too. And the media always remind us of this, constantly.

Bush is blessed by God. Whether he does good or bad - the invisible cloud being will keep him clean.
