TYCO INTERNATIONAL
Imprisoned ex-CEO speaks
Dennis Kozlowski, the imprisoned former CEO of Tyco International, said many of his friends abandoned him since his fraud conviction, according to excerpts of a 60 Minutes interview set to air Sunday.
Kozlowski, jailed for looting Tyco and defrauding shareholders, said in the interview the jury at his trial was prejudiced by his pay package. As CEO, he made $300 million between 1998 and 2002.
'I was a guy sitting in a courtroom making $100 million a year. And I think a juror sitting there just would have to say, `All that money? He must have done something wrong.' ''
