    Conrad Black convicted of fraud

    Anyone else participating in the honourable British tradition of laughing like a drain at the downfall of the arrogant and powerful?

    The guilty verdicts cap a remarkable fall from grace for Black, once one of the UK's wealthiest and most influential media figures.

              Was Conrad Black the guy with the dancing teeth?
              Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                Come on, a name like 'Conrad Black'. He's bound to be evil, like his namesake on Captain Scarlet. My mind was made up a long time ago and I'm surprised the jury took so long.

                    And should his wife who must have known what he was doing be allowed to profit finacially from his crimes?

                    Legally no, but the wealthy have this way of skipping those petty details of the crimes they commit.
