To me, this isn't shadenfreude. Lay and Skilling aren't experiencing bad fortune -- they broke the law and are being punished for it. One can take pleasure without handwringing -- we're seeing the system work as these guys get punished.
Lay's and Skilling's biggest mistakes, clearly, were not getting elected to Congress. They could have had diplomatic immunity from their own country, evidently. So, add that to the list of their failed forecasts. I haven't read through the reports yet, is hanging a possible sentence?
