Court Filings - More Discovery From Libby

:  GoLibby's team files for more disclosure.

My quick thoughts and links to the WaPo and Times coverage are at my main blog.

Let's get some court filings:

The Case Number at Pacer is:

1:05-cr-00394

Here is a 25 page .pdf file; it may lack the proper file suffix, so opening it may be problematic.  Never be daunted!

Main Document

Exhibits A-C: this is some very interesting correspondence between Special Counsel Fitzgerald and Libby's attorneys.  Key bits - Fitzgerald is not aware of any CIA documents suggesting that Ms. Plame's status was *not* classified in the relevant tie period; and, as far as Fitzgerald knows, the only five reporters that were aware that Valerie Plame (and/or Joe Wilson's wife) was at the CIA were Woodward, Miller, Pincus, Cooper, and Novak.  That means Russert and Mitchell 'denied' it (depending on what they were asked; evidently, Fitzgerald took from their statements that they knew nothing).

Exhibits D-F: pretty tedious; Ex. D is a transcript of the Fitzgerald press conference of Oct 28, 2005; Ex. E is the Oct 1, 2003 WaPo story noting the CIA criminal referral; and Ex. F is the White House order to folks to cooperate with the investigation or die trying.

Proposed Order: self-explanatory - the Libby team's wish list.
