Direct examination:
THE COURT: All right. You may ask the question [about the reaction of the Board to revelations about the Enron financial situation]. Ask it in a very focused manner.
Q: Ms. Rieker, what do you recall the response of the 25 board members to be when that table of loan activity was presented?
A: They were outraged.
Q: Do you recall any particular response from any particular board member?
A: Yes. I do.
Q: And what was that?
A: Mr. John Duncan explained that Mr. Lay was using Enron like a damn ATM machine.
Defense attorney: Your Honor, objection again. They're not going into specifics. They're going beyond the reaction.
THE COURT: No. They are. They're citing details of the reaction. Overruled. What did he say?
THE WITNESS: Mr. John Duncan explained that Mr. Lay was using Enron like a damn ATM machine.
