Enron execs, priests, a pharmacist, a judge:
- Boston Priests Doubting Cardinal After Sex Scandal
- Judge charged with stealing $300,000 from woman’s trust
- Pharmacist Pleads Guilty to Charges
… was motivated by a need for money, including a $600,000 tax liability and $330,000 to complete the balance of a $1 million pledge he had made to his church.
Ok, so he broke a couple of the Ten Commandments — VI: Thou shalt not steal and VIII: Thou shalt not kill. Not good. But it was really Numero Uno that did him in: Thou shalt have no other gods before me, which in the Book of Real Joe is the false God of vanity… in his case, the image of being a wealthy contributor to his church. I wonder what his family situation is and how that plays into this story? I wonder what how his church is handling this?
