NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Enron founder Kenneth Lay died early Wednesday in Aspen, a family spokeswoman said. He was 64.

In a statement, spokeswoman Kelly Kimberly said, "The Lays have a very large family with whom they need to communicate, and out of respect for the family we will release further details at a later time."

In May, Lay was found guilty of nine counts of fraud and conspiracy related to the collapse of Enron, the company he founded that grew into the seventh largest company before it imploded after an accounting scandal.

He's still alive. He's just faking and bought a doctor to say that he is dead.

Better then being the quintessential " The Man " in prison.

I don't think he would have done well in prison.

LOL at the conspiracy nuts. I’m sure the trial and verdict took a toll on his health.

The thing is that I would have rather he died in jail, instead of his vacation home.

He WAS filthy fucking rich. He is, at least before he died, filthy fucking in debt. About a 100 mill I think.
