NYSSCPA.org reports that "Enron barge-trial defendant William Fuhs had to explain repeatedly on cross examination Wednesday that he didn't recall much about the 1999 barge deal two and three years after it, but does remember details now."

Fuhs, a former Merrill Lynch banker, reportedly couldn't recall related documents or his involvement in the barge deal when he was interviewed by the SEC in 2002 and by the DOJ in 2003. Fuhs, however, told jurors that "his recall is so much better now because he's spent the time since his indictment going over tens of thousands of documents about the deal."
