he may have perjured himself before the grand jury. (He's been asked to give testimony on 3 different occasions which may indicate that some questions were repeated to him after others gave their testimony)It may be that there is a clear cut way Fitzgerald has to show that Rove passed the information about Plame and her CIA undercover status on to other mouthpieces which would fit him for either an IPA or Espionage Act charge, depending on the details. Certainly Novak's testimony would be that Rove confirmed for him her covert identity which places Rove in jail depending which bloated gasbag the jury believes is lying. In three months this will STILL be ongoing as a trial or trials and maybe there will even be additional investigations. Miller can be cited for contempt again and again particularly if something is learned that makes HER a target of the grand jury investigation. She has no confidentiality privilege to lean on so all she can do now is take the 5th or enjoy another contempt of court citation. Will Fitzgerald let her go for lack of evidence? Nobody knows what he has or what he'll do, but think of the years Susan McDougal spent in prison doing contempt of court stints before Ken Starr finally struck his tent. Will Miller learn to love life inside?
