March 6 - Libby Found Guilty

After a little more than a week, the Libby trial ends with the jury finding Scooter guilty on 4 of, I think, 5 counts. Barring winning an appeal, or a subsequent presidential pardon, this could lead to as much as 25 years in jail. Greatest likelihood has him sentenced to less than 3 years, though.

There's not a lot to write, here, that hasn't been written before. I am reading a lot a praise and validation being laid on the jury. I find this out of line with the quality of the questions that were asked of the judge during deliberations.

I can not fathom why, when no crime was found, the investigation simply wasn't folded up and shelved. This smacked of a witch hunt before and still does now.
