The Libby verdict is in:
Count I: GUILTY
Count II: GUILTY
Count III: NOT GUILTY
Count IV: GUILTY
Count V: GUILTY
Fitzgerald has asked for a couple of minutes with Ted Wells.
We will not know anything about potential appeals until after sentencing in June.
There was no response from Libby — his wife gave Wells a big hug, put her arm around Scooter, that's it.
From CHS at home:
MSNBC has live coverage of Wells' press conference outside the courthouse. Wells says very disappointed in the verdict of the jurors. Despite disappointment in jurors, we believe in the American justice system and in the jury system. We intend to file a motion for a new trial and, if that is denied, we plan to file an appeal.
Wells says he believes that Mr. Libby will be vindicated. "We intend to keep fighting to establish his innocence." That is thw whole of the statement.
