Ex-WorldCom CEO Bernard Ebbers will report to a federal prison Tuesday to begin his 25-year sentence for his role in an $11 billion accounting fraud. Ebbers, who was convicted by a jury in March 2005 of nine counts of conspiracy, securities fraud and other crimes that led to the phone company's July 2002 bankruptcy, is due to report to the federal prison in Yazoo City, Miss. Ebbers, whose conviction was part of a wave of corporate scandals at Enron and Adelphia, was free on bail while appealing his conviction and sentence, but in July a three-judge panel of the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed both. At a sentencing hearing last year, Federal Judge Barbara Jones recommended Ebbers be sent to the low-security facility in Yazoo City. Low-security prisons, designed for nonviolent offenders, often resemble school dormitories and typically do not have barbed wire or guard towers. Will he be let out 'daily to go for a beer'
