Dumb question regarding Supreme Court Justice Scalia
Advertisements [?]
This crossed my mind and I was hoping someone could answer it for me:

If the Fitzgerald investigation continues to dig into our "reasons" for going to war, it is inevitable (with any luck) that the Energy Committee, chaired by Cheney early in this Administration's tenure, will be examined.

Since Scalia was instrumental in denying any release of documents regarding this Committee (after a cozy little hunting trip with Cheney), is it possible for Scalia to face charges if some impropriety is discovered during the investigation?

In short, can a Supreme Court Justice be charged with a crime (say obstruction)?
