Former Enron boss surrenders to FBI

Kenneth Lay, former chairman and chief executive of Enron, turned himself in to the FBI today to face criminal charges involving the scandal-ridden energy company.

Lay, the founder of the company, was indicted yesterday after a two-and-a half-year federal investigation that has produced charges against some of his once most highly trusted lieutenants, including his hand-picked protégé, former chief executive Jeffrey Skilling.
