J. Clifford Baxter

J. Clifford Baxter (September 27, 1958 - January 25, 2002) was a former Enron Corporation executive who resigned in May 2001. He sold a large quantity of Enron stock during months prior to Enron bankruptcy. Reportedly, Baxter clashed with CEO Jeffrey Skilling over questionable Enron business practices. After the collapse of Enron, he was sought by authorities to testify against fellow Enron executives.

On January 25, 2002, Baxter was found dead in his vehicle. Though the official ruling on the cause of death was suicide, some persons dispute this claim.
