/in /by

This week I would like you to add something new and in addition to the information found in our Enron chapter or in the Enron movie.
By Wednesday, find an online article (that has not already been posted by a classmate) that adds at least one new fact or update not given in  our Enron chapter or in the Enron movie we watched.  Begin your post with the title of the article and a link to the article.  Then give us the new fact or update and explain it.  Expand with your thoughts or opinions.
By Sunday, reply to a classmate and express your views and opinions about the Enron case.  Cite the classmate’s name in the reply.  Add how you think the fraud and collapse could have been avoided.  Incorporate your classmate’s new fact or update into your reply.

Enron FBI

This article mentions that due to the magnitude of the case a special force task had to be created in order to properly investigate the Enron scandal, which was named “Enron Task Force”, which was comprised of the FBI,IRS Criminal Division, SEC and Department of Justice prosecutors. Also per this article it is mentioned than more than 3000 boxes with evidence, 1800 interviews were conducted among other evidence.
For such a large investigation, I am sure than more evidence could have been recovered, but was probably discarded before the investigation was officially launched.

The Rise and Fall of Enron

Enron was the result of a merger of Houston Gas North and Internorth. Because if the merger there was massive debt and loss of exclusive rights to pipelines and needed to come up with a new way to make money. After Skilling came up with the new way for Enron to make money Ken Lay created a new division called Enron Financial Corp and hired Skilling to run it. I find it very interesting that he created a new division just to have one person come work for the company because of how he saw things.
