I don't know if you're aware, but another investigation this prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald, is conducting is to do with New York Times reporters Philip Shenon and Judith Miller tipping off Islamic charities to imminent raids on their offices.
Fitzgerald is investigating who in the government leaked the raid information, as well as the reporters telling the charities the raids were about to take place. He also says he has evidence that as a result of tipping off the charities that they in fact destroyed evidence.
When did the leaking of these raids and tipping off take place? Why in 2001, very shortly after 9/11.
