If you think Ken Lay weaseled his way out of prison by dying before he got there, this will really rile you up.
It is a little known quirk of the law that a defendant who dies between conviction and sentencing is no longer guilty, at least on paper. "You're not technically convicted till after you're sentenced," explains Danny Onorato, former federal prosecutor and partner in the D.C. criminal defense firm of Schertler & Onorato. "So although he was convicted by a jury, he technically has no criminal record."Kenneth "Kenny Boy" Lay: Innocent man.
Unbelievable.

i think that he faked his own death :) and this is why :)
Well, my friend, you are by no means alone.
Is Ken Lay, a Fortune 500 power broker who rubbed shoulders with world leaders and the jet set elite, really dead?
To some folks, no.
"It's the CIA," said one mysterious caller to CNNMoney.com.
"There [must] be proof beyond any doubt that Ken Lay is dead and there is not a double being used so that Ken Lay can hide somewhere with the money he stole," wrote a reader.
"Make sure somebody in the press sees a body," added another reader.
There are several theories. The general idea is that Lay faked his death and is now living somewhere south of the border ... no doubt partying with Elvis. How could he pull off such a feat? Well, he was a one-time friend of President Bush. Even raised campaign funds for him. So either through friendship or even blackmail, then, the government helped.
I would not be the least bit suprised if this miserable excuse for a human being considered faking his own death. In fact, I would be surprised if he didn't consider it.
All that being said, I can't say I believe this is a charade, but if the authorities are smart, they'll make sure there's a body in that box before it goes into the furnace.
Lay always did say he was innocent. The only thing he was gulty of was enjoying all the money that God gave him like a good Christian.
