On the eve of Scooter Libby's sentencing, the damage from a troubling prosecution has already been done-to journalist and the public interest. The sentencing of I.Lewis (Scooter) Libby, scheduled for June 5, is the most leaked classified information ablout Valerie Plame's employment by the Central Intellegence Agency. Was it all worth it? The investigation followed allegations that Libby and Karl Rove, responding to criticism of the President and his rationale for waging war with Iraq by Plame's husband, former diplomat Joseph Wilson, had compromised her identity as an undercover agent. While the Administration's behavior was tawdry, there was no proof that intellegence laws had been broken or that an investigation was necessary. Nonetheless, once convinced that Libby (but not Rove) had lied under oath, the prosecutor argued that he had no choice but to indict, charging Libby with perjury, making false statements and obstruction of justice.
