 | | Yet Skilling himself seemed to see problems even as he was talking up the unit's success to analysts. | | | Whatever Skilling knew about Enron's woes, the scandal is sure to keep him from relaxing on the beach anytime soon. | | | Sources close to a Securities & Exchange Commission probe say they're skeptical that underlings could have concealed wrongdoing from such a hands-on manager as Skilling, who regularly walked the halls and talked to employees. |

| | Skilling began to behave strangely during this time and in April of 2001 verbally attacked ("Well, thank you very much, we appreciate that...asshole") a respected Wall Street analyst during a recorded conference call. | | | Police responding to the 911 calls found him uncooperative and concluded that he was an "emotionally disturbed person" in need of emergency assistance. | | | The main reason for his arrest was his probable knowledge of the fraudulent transactions within Enron. |

| | Personally, I don't see how someone in Skillings' position, as someone who was a recipient of the profits, and one of the people responsible for the distribution of Enron's corporate wealth could NOT have known what was going on. | | | Skilling's defenders would point out that Fastow apparently hid some things from Skilling, including how much money Fastow was making from his extraordinarily profitable side deals. | | | By the way, the employees of Enron were always aware of the type of firm it was and what its ethics were like. |

| | As a part of the scheme, Skilling and Causey allegedly set unrealistic and unattainable earnings goals for Enron, based on analysts’ expectations rather than on actual or reasonably achievable business results. | | | The indictment alleges that, through a combination of these fraudulent accounting devices and their misleading public statements, Skilling, Causey and others were able to create and maintain the illusion that Enron was a successful company when, in fact, it was failing. | | | Enron then announced publicly that it had met or exceeded analysts’ expectations when, as Skilling and Causey allegedly knew, it made its numbers only by engaging in fraud. |
