Houston White Collar Crime Attorney
"At one point, Chip Lewis, a tall, burly lawyer with a goatee who represents Mr. Lay, turned to John C. Hueston, a prosecutor, and accused him of misleading the jury about Mr. Lay's potential conflict of interest in a photo-sharing company.
'Don't come to Houston, Texas, and lie to us!' Mr. Lewis shouted at Mr. Hueston, who barely flinched and never returned the stare. 'I cannot think of a more despicable act, when a man's life is at stake, than to tell a premeditated lie.'"
