stillcrazy 0 #7 Posted March 5, 2004 Personally, I found that trial a massive waste of time. I would tend to agree. Can anyone name the people who have been convicted in the Enron case, or the Tyco case? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gazz 0 #13 Posted March 6, 2004 I read up on this case a little and found some things quite interesting. Martha Stewart's wealth was estimated to be a little over $1 BILLION dollars before this all happened. The amount she saved in the 'illegal' sale of this stock gave her a savings of about $40,000. That would be for most of us like facing jail time for saving .40 cents on a gallon of milk. I tend to believe her claim that she had no Idea that by selling these stocks based on advice from her paid advisor that she was doing anything illegal. Where she made her mistake was telling lies when she should have admitted to her mistakes. In some ways I feel she is just being made an example of by the legal system.

stillcrazy 0 #22 Posted March 7, 2004 (edited) I'm just glad I dumped all my stock Friday morning That was a joke. I never owned Stewart stock, nor Enron. I suff all my money in a mattress. But her stock did take a dive after the verdict was red. And Kellalor, I agree, this was the biggest bunch of BS in the history of the SEC. I still want to know why the folks at enron are running free. Edited March 7, 2004 by stillcrazy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
