Enron probe turns focus to Lay's wife. (Houston Chronicle)
Federal authorities are investigating whether former Enron Chairman Ken Lay's wife acted improperly when she had their family foundation sell large quantities of Enron stock just days before the company's bankruptcy.

Mike Ramsey, lawyer for Ken Lay, confirmed Tuesday night that the Enron Task Force is investigating Linda Lay's requests that the charitable foundation sell shares in order to use the money to pay charitable obligations.

"It is a low and dirty blow," Ramsey said of the investigation. "The government has a vivid imagination. They believe they were anointed by the Lord to do what they please."

Doesn't he realize that some in this government do, indeed, believe they were anointed by the Lord?
