Late Night Filing: Libby Responds to Fitzgerald

[cal04]

Talk Left's synopsis of this whole memorandum


Scooter Libby has just filed a 29 page Reply Memorandum (pdf) (to Patrick Fitzgerald's Response) to Libby's Third Motion to Compel Discovery, and 25 pages of exhibits. I just obtained them and am about to start reading. Details soon. Also, scroll to the bottom to see other bloggers' takes as they come in, as I'll be updating with links to them.

Shorter version: Watch out Marc Grossman, Ari Fleischer, Karl Rove, George Tenet and Joe Wilson: Scooter's coming after you. (more below.)

First Update: Libby may call Joe Wilson as a hostile witness (page 9)

...because the defense may call Mr. Wilson as a hostile witness, we need to prepare to examine him, if necessary, on the details of the trip, including his wife's role in selecting him for the assignment and the findings he reported to the CIA, and later, to the press.

2. Looks like another attempt to get at classified information

and try to cover yesterday's highlighting of particular facts by the prosecutor.

3. The Reply

on the CIPA issues covers more than one might expect. I just posted an essay on GD regarding the document.
