CIA Witness List
March 18, 2006
Potential witnesses in the upcoming criminal trial of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, as referenced in court papers by Libby's lawyers. The trial is scheduled for January:
-Richard Armitage, former deputy secretary of state.
-Ari Fleischer, former White House press secretary.
-Marc Grossman, former undersecretary of state for political affairs.
-Colin Powell, the former secretary of state.
-Karl Rove, the deputy White House chief of staff.
-George Tenet, the former CIA director.
-Joseph Wilson, a former U.S. ambassador.
-Valerie Plame Wilson.
-Stephen Hadley, the president's national security adviser. Libby's lawyers said Hadley may offer important testimony about discussions within the administration concerning the need to rebut Wilson's statements about his trip to Africa and its conclusions. In addition, said the defense, Hadley was active in discussions about the need to declassify and disseminate the prewar national intelligence on Iraq and had numerous conversations with Tenet. Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald has said he plans to focus on Libby's disclosure of certain portions of the NIE to New York Times reporter Judith Miller, disclosures Libby told the grand jury he was authorized to make by his superiors.
