Final arguments in Libby trial set for Tuesday
Ex-Cheney chief of staff faces perjury, obstruction of justice charges
Prosecutors and defense attorneys in the trial of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby will make their final arguments to the jury on Tuesday.

(snip)
The prosecution has the burden of convincing the jurors, beyond a reasonable doubt, of Libby's guilt.

Peter Zeidenberg, a Justice Department prosecutor, will begin the summation case for the government Tuesday morning. He will be followed by Wells.

As is customary in federal criminal trials, the prosecutors will have the last word. The prosecution's rebuttal will be presented by Fitzgerald.

1. I know NOTHING is ever certain with any jury, but if I can depend on
the blogging transcripts I read, things are looking very good for Fitz.
