The Nacchio debacle

claude rains in casablanca145 I'm shocked, absolutely shocked, that a former Enron Task Force member would have ever been involved in improperly suppressing exculpatory testimony at trial that would ultimately lead to the Tenth Circuit's reversal of the conviction of former Qwest CEO, Joseph Nacchio.

Larry Ribstein and Ellen Podgor break down and comment on the Tenth Circuit decision. As an aside, the expert witness who was improperly excluded in the Nacchio trial -- Daniel Fischel -- was the author of the book that exposed the true nature of, and motive behind, Rudolph Giuliani's prosecution of Michael Milken.

Fischel? A credible expert?

Every man has his price.
