That was the law as of 2003, and it effected 20% of all "stock holders", not only Enron's. Since then, the law has been amended, however it still effects 8% of those that hold stock in the companies they hope to retire from.
Some of Enron's workers have really been "hung out to dry". There was an item on the news about a 74 year old man that helped build the company, aand lost over 1.3 million in earned retirement benefits. Now he's living on SS.
It seems with recent events, Ken Lay is guilty of nothing as he wasn't sentenced. That's the law.
All the rest that worked all of their lives are S h Outta Luck.
Justice?
Not in this country.
A shame that they can't even touch the estate.

Disgusting. The guy got off completely.
