re:"There was no crime committed and Plame was not a covert agent as first represented by the CIA." Main articles: Plame affair and Plame affair timeline There is an ongoing investigation being conducted by prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald into whether this law and others were violated in the identification of Valerie Plame as a CIA operative in a 2003 newspaper column by Robert Novak. [3] As a result of the investigation, former Vice Presidential chief of staff I. Lewis Libby was convicted on two counts of perjury, one count of obstruction of justice and one count of making false statements to federal investigators[4] and sentenced to 30 months in jail. [5] In a court filing related to Libby's sentencing, the CIA stated that Plame was a covert agent at the time of the leak. [6] In addition, the leak enabled the identification of Plame as an employee of the CIA front company, Brewster Jennings & Associates, and in doing so enabled the identification of other CIA agents who were "employed" there.
