Bump
Last month Libby's defense team also gave notice to Judge Reggie Walton that it intended to subpoena journalists in the case.
And...
The document filed by Fitzgerald indicated that the grand jury investigation into who leaked Plame's name is still ongoing. A status hearing in the case is scheduled for Feb. 24 before Walton.
If the prosecutor is using these documents to prosecute Libby, then Libby has the right to see them. How can he defend himself otherwise?
What is Fitz trying to hide? Was does he refuse to turn over any documents relating to Val's (alleged) classified status or the damage done from any disclosure?
One guess is it would show no underlying crime and no motive for alleged perjury.
I'm getting real sick of having to listen to Jonathan Turdley lay out the DNC talking points for them
Libby can't get a fair trial unless he has everything the prosecution has...
Before Fitzgerald forced him to resign, Scooter Libby held one of the top posts in the country, and I'm sure had a very high security clearance.
Fitzgerald is a mid-level prosecutor, for all his current fame. Is his security clearance as high as Libby's? Has he been as thoroughly backgrounded?
I doubt it. Now he's trying to say that the assistant to the Vice President can't be trusted with classified documents?
Let's not forget that Libby is an attorney, and I'm sure has a top notch legal team to represent him. I'm not sure I'd want to be Fitz at this point.
Yet another Scooter ping!
Hey! I want the whole seedy bunch of reporters on the stand to testify! Everyone who had a word to say in this case. Stick them in jail for a year if they don't.
