Empty Wheel is live-blogging part two of Ted Wells' opening statement.
Finally, some news of who got immunity to testify against Libby: Ari Fleischer, for one. Wells told the jury:
When the FBI wanted to talk to Ari, he pled the fifth, refused to testify unless he was immunized. After being immunized he said he had this conversation with Libby.
Here is some TalkLeft background on Ari's involvement in the case, and why he is such a harmful witness to Libby.
Update: Marcy reports (link above) Wells tells the jury Ari leaked to NBC reporter David Gregory.
Ari dislcoses to David Gregory on July 11 that Ambassador Wilson's wife worked at the CIA.
