the plot thickens?

Enron witness found dead in park

A body found in north-east London has been identified as that of a banker who was questioned by the FBI about the Enron fraud case.

Police said they were treating the death in Chingford of Neil Coulbeck, who worked for the Royal Bank of Scotland until 2004, as "unexplained".

He had been interviewed by the FBI as a potential witness.

Three ex-workers of RBS subsidiary NatWest are being extradited to the US on Thursday to face fraud charges.

The extradition has sparked a political row, with opposition parties and human rights groups claiming the treaty under which they are being sent to the US is one-sided as the Americans are yet to ratify it.

That was a supremely uninformative article. Does not state his age, and unexplained is a pretty vague way to characterize a murder, if indeed that is what we have here.

dude, pretty harsh. Maybe you should get over there and kick some Bobby butt to get them working harder on the case. Or would you prefer they just made up information?

Actually, I think that they wrote a very different article, then were forced to pull it. And this goes all the way up to the president, man!

Pardon me while I adjust my tinfoil...

I know funny and that is funny.

Sorry man, that article just did not "say" anything. I felt more uninformed after I read it

I don't doubt this is a non-story. Just adding fuel to the fire.

And Tobra, I feel my iq dropping every day after reading most of the posts in here...especially mine

whaaa?

Good news everyone! Oh, yes, madness runs in our family. Some people even called ME mad? And why? Because I dared to dream of creating a race of atomic monsters... atomic supermen with octagonal bodies that suck blood...

Sure, everyone's always in favor of saving Hitler's brain, but put it in the body of a great white shark... oooooh, suddenly you've gone too far!

We tore the universe a new space-hole, all right, and now it's clenching shut.

I don't have time for this! I have to buy a single piece of fruit with a coupon and then return it, making everyone behind me wait in line.
