Science Puts Enron E-Mail to Use

Ryan Singel writes on Wired News:

In March 2001, just a few months before Enron CEO Jeffrey Skilling resigned, an employee e-mailed him a joke about a policeman pulling over a speeding driver, whose wife subsequently rats him out to the cop for other offenses, including being drunk.

Skilling and Enron chairman Ken Lay, whose federal trial on multiple felony fraud charges starts Monday, might not see the irony that, like the driver's wife, their e-mails will soon be testifying against them, both in court and in public opinion.
