The federal judge who oversaw I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby's CIA leak trial said Thursday that he received threatening letters and phone calls after sentencing the former White House aide to prison. Walton made the remarks as he opened a hearing into whether to delay Libby's 2 1/2-year sentence. Libby, the former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, argues that he shouldn't have to report to prison until his appeals have run out. Walton has said he's not inclined to grant that request.
