Ari Sings Like a Canary Against Cheney's Betrayl of the CIA |

WASHINGTON - Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald took a gamble three
years ago that White House press secretary Ari Fleischer might break
open his leak investigation.
As Fitzgerald's inquiry was heating up into who revealed CIA operative
Valerie Plame's name to reporters, Fleischer stepped forward with an
offer: Give me immunity from prosecution and I'll give you information
that might help your case.
What prosecutors didn't know was that Fleischer was one of the
leakers. And without immunity, he refused to talk. Not even a hint.
Prosecutors normally insist on an informal account of what a witness
will say before agreeing to immunity. It's known in legal circles as a
proffer, and Fitzgerald said Thursday that he never got one from
Fleischer, who was chief White House spokesman for the first 2 1/2
years of President Bush's first term.
"I didn't want to give him immunity. I did so reluctantly," Fitzgerald
said in court. "I was buying a pig in a poke."
