Former Enron Chief Executive Jeffrey Skilling remained prickly in his seventh day on the witness stand in his criminal fraud trial when challenged on Wednesday about whether the energy giant was a risky trading company. Skilling tried to give detailed denials when asked if he deliberately downplayed Enron's allegedly risky trading practices to investors. But federal prosecutor Sean Berkowitz repeatedly cut him off, seeking "yes" or "no" answers when the ex-CEO insisted the issues weren't so simple.
