" CBS News chief White House correspondent John Roberts reports the prosecutor has informed targets of the investigation of his intentions – and that can only mean indictments."
It is very unusual to send target letters at this late date-especially to those who were previously told they were not targets.
Prosecutors have a very good idea who is a target early in the investigation.
Fitzgerald has had two years.
He may claim he was waiting for Miller to testify, but, from her own words, she didn't add much to the picture.
If indictments are returned, the failure to notify witnesses that they were targets will be an issue that will probably be litigated.
The last minute interviewing of neighbors is very troubling.This should have been early on and not just neighbors, but, family and friends.
Neighbors rarely know the details of one's personal life, friends do.
I find it troubling because no neighbor in his right mind would admit this to the FBI given the high visibility of the investigation. If you admitted you knew, you could find yourself drawn into protracted legal proceedings and maybe acting as a witness against Plame and Wilson. No friendly neighbor is going to rat out Valerie and Joe.
I think I agree. I thought the point of a target letter was so someone would know before they were asked to testify. I didn't think there was any reason to deliver a target letter after the testimony was complete.
I have lived in the same house for 17 years and I would be hard-pressed to state with total accuracy who my long-term neighbors work for or even their last names!
I've lived in the same house for 15 years, and had several jobs over that time. And very often, my neighbors did not know where I worked. Nor do I know where they work.
Of course, I can tell you how often they cut their grass, and how much trash they put in the dumpster each week.
