Lawyer Casts Blame on Reporter for Time in Jail

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/03/AR2005100301770.html

A lawyer for I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, Vice President Cheney's chief of staff, said yesterday that New York Times reporter Judith Miller and her attorneys are responsible for Miller's 85 days in jail, reiterating that she was given permission a year ago to tell a prosecutor about private conversations she had with Libby.

Libby's attorney, Joseph A. Tate, escalated the sharp dispute over exactly when Libby freed Miller to be questioned by special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald, who is investigating whether any government officials broke the law by leaking the identity of covert CIA operative Valerie Plame.
