indictment

Once again, it's not the original charge but the attempted coverup.  Chief of Staff to the VP Scooter Libby was indicted today.

 

Fitzgerald suggested that proving Libby lied to the grand jury would be an easier case to make than showing he intentionally revealed a secret officer's cover. Specifically, the prosecutors alleged Libby concocted a false story that he got Plame's name from reporters and passed it on to others when in fact he got the information from classified sources.
