Deal would reduce sentence for Enron's Skilling
Federal prosecutors and attorneys for convicted ex-Enron Corp. CEO Jeffrey Skilling say they have reached an agreement that will reduce the jailed executive's sentence for his role in the energy giant's collapse. Under an agreement made public Wednesday, Skilling's original sentence of more than 24 years would be reduced to somewhere between 14 and 17 1/2 years. The final decision on the length of the sentence will be made by U.S. District Judge Sim Lake at a June 21 hearing in Houston. Ref. CNN
