Head Line: Ex-CIA official wants immunity

The article says once given immunity any information gathered by House Intelligence Committee can not be used against Jose Rodriguez in court. It also said Lawmakers are typically reluctant to grant immunity requests because doing so could torpedo a criminal investigation. Anything Rodriguez spoke about would be off-limits to the Justice Department, as would any secondary evidence built on his tesimony. Anyone involved in destroying the tapes of the CIA interrogation of the two al-Qaida suspects will go free and any information about them will be covered up . Here we go with another "Watergate cover up" and we are watching them do it. Instead of immunity offer him 15 years for cooperation and life for with holding information. That should be the only deal he should be given just like he was any other citizen.
