The prison sentence for the former boss of scandal-hit Enron has been reduced on appeal from 24 to 14 years.
Jeffrey Skilling presided over Enron when it became embroiled in one of the biggest corporate frauds in US history.

What does he owe his victims?

Maybe it's better to put him on work-release, so he can work off the $200 million or so getting skull fucked for $15 a pop behind the liquor store next to the rescue mission.

Can he still be the next Treasury Secretary even if incarcerated?

No, but he can still head the World Bank or IMF

10 years off his sentence. I guess all those bribes to judges with other people's money paid off after all.

He will still be a sprightly age to do a Madoff or two on the unsuspecting. Hurrah for our "justice" system.

Various news outlets have described how Skilling "negotiated" a "deal" to get his sentence reduced.

Since when do we allow convicted felons to "negotiate" their prison sentences?

This stinks.
