    Kenneth Lay had served no time in prison at the time of his death in 2006 and it took five years to prosecute him. Had he lived he may have served jail time - but it's entirely hypothetical, we cannot say for sure.

    As for more relevant US examples from the recent economic crisis, Richard Fuld has served no jail time and has not even been arrested. In fact as far as I am aware no US banker has - and certainly none of the top level ones. Same story in the UK.

    Jeffery Skilling the president of Enron who was on trial with Kenneth Lay is currently serving a 24-year, four-month prison. So it seems in America good chance you won't get off scott free.

    Where was this mentioned and why does it take nearly 2 years more to bring the case to trial. Does he get 2 more years to really bury the dead bodies etc.

    I heard it on one of the news bulletins. I can't remember what the term was they used to describe the reason for the delay.

    Basically it was saying they needed to leave time between the cases to give him a chance of getting a fair case. Breathing space you might say!

    Breathing space my ass he is getting time to get rid of dead bodies etc. He knows far too much and what he knows has to be protected at all costs.

    They wil never go to court, because if they did they would start naming the aherns of this world who are up to there eyeballs in bankrupting the country. And just how involved he was with certain developers.

    All them bankers will be deas before there is a court case, or else they wil get ahern amnesia and forget everything!

    Im surprised people havent taken the law into their own hands over this piece of filth and if he doesnt get jail time he may want to go into protective custody with the amount of people who will want to administer it themselves
    While I don't condone stamping, I think this is a bit harsh.

    I hope you don't mind me correcting you, but it was the Longford clown that had amnesia, he was not able to attend the Tribunal to explain what he done when he diverted the government jet when leaving the US to the Caymen Islands.
    Berti fooked the country, but not on his own, give the other scum bags their due. Everyone's entitled to their recognition, just for historical purpose's.

    People like him and Bertie should be shunned. They should be booed by all decent people wherever they go, they should be unable to go anywhere in public without being reminded of what they have done.

    Well said. I think of the misery, suffering, pain and even suicides of some people I know caused by the reckless behaviour of these 2 people. In other countries they would not have got away with it.

    I think it's high time that changed we need to set an example of him so that people high up know they can't get away with what Seanie did.
