Jeff Skilling: Drunk in Public

Who's Sorry Now?

Here's a sad sak for ya - Jeff Skilling, the high and mighty Enron executive, falling further and further down the rabbit hole as we speak. Drunk in public is pretty "common", eh, Jeffrey?

The bigger they are, the harder they fall. This Enron story is beginning to take on mythic qualities - Lay's death, the fortunes lost, and now public intoxication.

Here:

"The police report said Skilling was not drinking at the time of his arrest, and he did not resist officers, the newspaper said. He was in the swanky Uptown neighborhood north of downtown Dallas; Skilling was staying at a nearby town house he owns. Public intoxication is a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $500. He received a $385 ticket and was briefly detained in a city jail. Skilling faces 20 to 30 years in prison in the Enron case and is scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 23."
