In linking to the story of the sentencing of Betty Vinson, a former Worldcom employee, the WhiteCollarCrimeProfBlog provides a cautionary tale for all employees – including inhouse counsel:
"She entered the numbers on the books, albeit at the direction of her
superiors. It was wrong, but when you work for someone you assume that
you have to do as they say to keep your position. Saving your job is
never worth doing something illegal, especially something that may land
you in jail down the road."
