Wait a second … so it was all a big misunderstanding? Judy Miller never had to go to jail in the first place? She coulda prevented all this with a phone call? Bizarre.
Ms. Miller told Mr. Libby simply that “I wanted you to tell me personally” that his waiver was voluntary. “Why didn’t somebody call us?” Mr. Tate asked.
Mr. Libby also expressed surprise that Ms. Miller had been holding out for his sake. Mr. Libby and his lawyer had assumed that Ms. Miller had been protecting other sources. Mr. Tate, in a brief telephone interview last night, added that Mr. Libby has testified already to the grand jury about his conversation with Ms. Miller. He declined to discuss specifics, but noted that his side hasn’t heard from prosecutors in more than a year. Mr. Tate previously has said that Mr. Libby has not been told that he’s a target of the investigation.
