Indictments Coming Tomorrow; Targets Received Letters Today

An uber-insider source has just reported the following to TWN (since confirmed by another independent source):

1. 1-5 indictments are being issued. The source feels that it will be towards the higher end.
2. The targets of indictment have already received their letters.

3. The indictments will be sealed indictments and "filed" tomorrow.

4. A press conference is being scheduled for Thursday.


The shoe is dropping.

More soon.

1. I just read that at Steve's site

There is a lot of ensuing discussion over whether that's 1-5 indictments or 1-5 persons and the significance of sealing the indictments. I understand sealing the indictments but I still don't understand if it's 1-5 indictments or 1-5 persons.

3. It apparently means they are not being made public
until the targets are arrested. It also gives them time to negotiate/plea bargain with Fitz, by keeping the exact charges in the indictments secret.

6. If they're filed Thursday
then the arrests should come Thursday or Friday.

8. Lord, I never even thought of them being arrested.
I simply thought they will surrender with their lawyers and bail will be immediately arranged.

7. Yes , We do want to know. I feel like I have been on
on medication of some sort for weeks. Can't sleep well. Afraid I will miss something. Getting excited thinking there will be an announcement and then feeling disappointed. Sheesh, I am a basket case. Hope I am not too disappointed when I hear the announcement.I want to see some heads fall.I totally empathize with Will Pitts article about his day at the computer.Funny, but true.
