SCREAM AND THE POWER OF CHOCOLATE

You couldn’t have scripted it better. Only a couple of days after a two-million M&Ms dark chocolate reward was offered for the recovery of Edvard Munch’s “The Scream”, Norweigan police find the stolen painting (along with…

Well, if Ken Lay did actually die, I would bet that it was a suicide. The idea that he could’ve faked his own death and left the country is equally plausible. Will we, the American public, ever actually know the answer?

It’s the Fed’s who spirited Ken Lay away to prevent him from implicating “W”. Lay was ready to spill the beans if Bush didn’t pardon him before his prison term was to start.
The Judge in Texas, who let him go to Aspen twice and the coroner in Grand Junction, CO are in on it as well.

K: No... That CBS news article you cited is referring to WorldCom's Bernie Ebbers:

The scene said everything about the year in white-collar crime: Bernard Ebbers, the jocular, folksy former boss of WorldCom Inc., hunched forward in a courtroom chair, quietly crying. He had just been sentenced to 25 years in prison for orchestrating the record $11 billion accounting fraud at the toppled telecom — essentially a life term for a man 63 years old and with a history of heart trouble.

Lay's mentioned later in the article, at the start of the Enron trial. But no mention of any health problems for him.

I heard the news on the radio and the very first thing I thought was “That son of a bitch faked his death, didn’t he?”

At least I have the comfort of knowing I wasn’t the only one with this idea.

Ken Lay Avoids Prison Time

Early this morning Aspen endured its second celebrity death in a little over a year. The first, of gonzo writer Hunter S. Thompson, was clearly a suicide. Today’s death, of former Enron CEO and convicted felon Kenneth Lay was the result not of self-d…
