More on the Libby Commutation

In this installment of What The Media Doesn't Tell You Dean Lawrence R. Velvel of MSL discusses Scooter Libby's trial conviction, and commutation with Professors Constance Rudnick and Andrew Starkis, both of the Massachusetts School of Law. During opening statements, Libby's attorney stated that Vice President Cheney would testify, yet he never did. What did Libby know about Valerie Plame that caused him to lie to the grand jury? Did Libby lie to the grand jury to keep the heat off Cheney? In addition, why did Libby receive a commutation?
