Cheney Says He May Testify in Libby Case

IN BRIEF/WASHINGTON, D.C.

June 23, 2006|From Times Wire Reports

Vice President Dick Cheney said he might have to testify in the CIA leak trial of his former chief of staff.

Cheney made the comment in a CNN interview, following last month's suggestion by prosecutors that the vice president would be a logical witness in the case of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, who is accused of perjury, obstruction and lying to the FBI.

Libby is "one of the finest men I've ever known," Cheney said, then declined further comment. "I may be called as a witness."
