ABC: The Man Who Could Rock the Bush Administration
The Man Who Could Rock the Bush Administration
Colleagues Call Patrick Fitzgerald The 'Perfect Man' For the Job

Oct. 27, 2005— Patrick Fitzgerald's team worked late into the night after spending three hours before a grand jury that has the power to hand up indictments in the CIA leak probe that could rock the Bush administration. Those who know Fitzgerald best, predict those indictments are imminent.

"He would have shut this down sooner had he known that there wasn't going to be indictments at the end of the day," said Joshua Berman, a former colleague of Fitzgerald.

Many who have worked with him describe Fitzgerald as determined, meticulous, intense — a man with a perfect memory. President Bush has called Fitzgerald's conduct dignified and acknowledged the gravity of his task.

"This is a serious investigation," Bush said.

Fitzgerald has a history of conducting serious investigations. As a U.S. attorney in New York he jailed mobsters and terrorists, indicted Osama bin Laden years before most Americans had heard of al Qaeda and now is currently also investigating charges of corruption at Chicago's Democratic city hall.

Ron Safer, a criminal defense attorney who has gone up against Fitzgerald, says Fitzgerald is fair and apolitical.
