CIA leak prosecutor to make any announcement in DC
ReutersReuters

Oct 17, 2005 — WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The prosecutor investigating the outing of a covert CIA operative has yet to say whether he will bring charges but he has decided to announce decisions in the case in Washington rather than Chicago, where he is based, his spokesman said on Monday.

Special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, who has been investigating the case of who leaked the identify of Valerie Plame since 2003, is the U.S. attorney in Chicago and his staff has been tight-lipped throughout.

"If and when there would be any announcement, it would be made in Washington," said Randall Samborn, Fitzgerald's spokesman. Samborn cautioned against reading anything into Fitzgerald's decision.

6. I believe the GJ meets on MWF.
Likely the indictments (hopefully) will come on Wednesday. Sooner the better.

11. At this point, if I were him, I wouldn't travel.
Maybe I am superstitious, (tin-foil on) but I would stay close to home.

20. The grand jury is impaneled in Washington, DC
It seems logical that as soon as an indictment or indictments are issued by grand jury, that Fitzpatrick will announce them in DC rather than fly back to Chicago.

19. Media desperate for real news? Grand jury in DC, investigation in DC.
The grand jury, not Fitz, decides whether or not to issue indictments. Natural to expect that any announcements regarding such matters should be in DC.

Since Fitz says so little and the media's busting for any word, they've must've wet themselves to get such a scoop from his spokesman.
