WASHINGTON - Former White House aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby's conviction capped a four-year, politically charged investigation but did not seal Libby's fate or resolve some of the lingering questions in the
CIA leak case.
....
Juror Denis Collins on Wednesday summed up the dilemma that he and his associates faced behind closed doors.
"There was a frustration that we were trying someone for telling a lie apparently about an event that never became important enough to file charges anywhere else," he said on ABC's "Good Morning America."
"I would hope that the message sent by this jury shouldn't be that big a message," he said.
....
And then there's the lingering question of whether Bush will pardon Libby, as the president's father did in 1992 for former Reagan administration officials caught up in the scandal that grew out of arms sales to Iran and the diversion of proceeds to the Nicaraguan rebels.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (news, bio, voting record), D-Nev., immediately called on Bush not to pardon Libby. The White House wouldn't say what the president might do.
"I'm aware of no such request for a pardon," presidential spokeswoman Dana Perino said. "As is afforded to all Americans, there is a process that is followed in which to apply for a pardon. And I don't think that speculating on a wildly hypothetical situation at this time is appropriate."
