"We don't KNOW that any crime is involved. I doubt that there was outside of maybe conspiracy to undermine National Security. Miller is in jail for Contempt of Court."

Yes, Miller is in jail for contempt of court. Why is she in contempt? Because she refuses to testify.

Is leaking classified information still a crime? If so, was she a witness to that crime being committed?

You have to testify about a crime if you are a material witness; it is not optional...not for *any* crime.

Right but she would still be in jail for not obeying the court whether or not there was a crime. Merely impeding the investigation of a possible crime would do it. I do not believe there was a crime here certainly not involving Rove.
