What kind of protection does Fitzgerald have?

[z-man]

I mean as in physically? The more I see coming out about this investigation the more I keep holding my breath not wanting anything to go wrong and have my hopes dashed again. I have to wonder what Fitzgerald's world is like. I mean the BFEE are heavy hitters when it comes to getting rid of people that dare to whistle blow or investigate and he's been at it for some time now. Does he have physical protection? Does he have a secret underground bat cave to keep all of his records and documents? I don't mean to make light of the situation but a part of me can't believe there is an area of our government that still works like it's supposed to, that he is actually protected in the "usual" ways and they aren't doing anything about it.

1. Probably the 24-7, Kevlar clad sort of protection.

I'd hate to be in his position. :(

2. Fitz' has a team, so the information is probably secure

but if I were him, I'd want to move around with some body guards.

The folks who made up the wackjob clearchannel prowar mobs that threated violence against protesters are still out there.

3. I've wondered the same thing

Does he actually do a press conference in the open. I mean, anyone could easily take him out. And what about his workplace, house etc. If I was him, I have a back-up prosecutor who is custodian of a shadow file and is never in the same place as him.

4. May the higher powers of the universe protect him.

He is our savior.

5. None. I saw Fitzgerald at National Airport last Friday afternoon

Just an ordinary guy trying to catch a late afternoon flight out of D.C.

It shocked me out of my pants to see him; I actually went back and checked to make sure it was him. Then he walked by me again and I was sure it was him. If I'd had the guts I would have gone up to him and told him the hopes of a nation are resting on his shoulders.

6. it is likely

that the case does not rely on ANYTHING that exists soley in his head. everything should be documented, and multiple copies kept in secure areas and fireproof safes. and there are probably people on his legal team that know everything he knows.

that's the only way to stay alive in a game like this. make it so your death would accomplish nothing.

7. See now that is amazing to me.

How is this possible? I feel like hiring him a crew of security guards myself.
