Reply #14: KBR and Halliburton actually pled guilty to these charges in the U.S. in this same scandal. [View All]

Here is from an LA Times blog on this:

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2010/12/dick-cheney-nigeria.html

"Last year Halliburton and KBR pleaded guilty in a U.S. court of paying off the Nigerian officials more than $180 million in bribes when Cheney was chief executive of Haliburton and were fined a record $579 million under the Foreign Corrupt Practices act, and a top KBR executive, Albert "Jack" Stanley was sentenced to seven years in prison."

So it's useless for them to now pretend like nothing is going on and they did nothing wrong. They've already pled guilty to it.
