Wells [Libby's lawyer] said Libby complained to Cheney in 2003 that he was being made a "sacrificial lamb" as the White House tried to protect a more valuable aide to Bush, Karl Rove, who was also then facing allegations that he had leaked Plame's identity.
"They're trying to set me up. They want me to be the sacrificial lamb," Wells said, recalling the conversation between Libby and Cheney. "I will not be sacrificed so Karl Rove can be protected."
