She was too inquisitive, and Emperors don't like people pointing out that they have no clothes. Tom,

I'm fighting this very thing right now. I have no hope, no laws to help me in any way, still, I fight against PsychoCapitalism, the weird mutant offspring of Capitalism and Misanthropy. Enamored defense of Enron, WorldCom, Skilling, Ken Lay, etc. will occur. Just as we have those who still worship Charles Manson. And Enron's corruption ruined a lot more lives, destroyed more people, than Charles Manson ever did. Sarbanes-Oxley is causing IT Control and Audit to be seen in a whole new light.

He faces up to 10 years in prison." You'd take the word of a convicted fellon? These fellons don't so much sing as compose, i.e. they tell court what the prosecution wants them to say. Find a witness who is not about to go to prison. “Rice, who has pleaded guilty to securities fraud and is awaiting sentencing, led Enron’s Internet broadband business EBS, until July 2001.
