Executive

Michael Kopper was sentenced to a 37-month prison term for his role in the corporate scandal.

The sentences was reduced at the request of prosecuting attorneys in return for the testimony against other former Enron executives.

Kopper, a former Enron managing director and subordinate to former Enron Chief Financial Officer Andrew Fastow, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy and one count of money laundering in August 2002 for which he faced up to 15 years in prison.

As part of his plea agreement, Kopper agreed to return millions of dollars he had pilfered from the company.

That money, along with the court-imposed $50,000.00 fine , has been deposited in a fund for the victims of Enron's collapse.
