Cheney and Gonzalez INDICTED

Houston Chronicle Article

This story piqued my interest for a couple of reasons. First, any time a Vice-President and former cabinet member are indicted on criminal charges it must be big news. Second, the story was supposedly broken by my hometown television ABC affiliate.

If anything is evident from history, and several Law and Order episodes, an indictment is just an accusation. There are several ways in which this can all fade away e.g. the court can dismiss the indictment, the charges can be dropped and/or dismissed.

Despite this, I will be monitoring this situation.
