I haven't heard a plausible reason to believe that whoever called Novak didn't commit a crime. I thought you were resting on the technicality that they haven't been charged or convicted yet. That said, I think Fitzgerald would have them dead to rights if he knew who they were. And maybe he does.

If Bush could engineer a way for them to 'fess up and then pardon him, he could be done with the story after a few days. But he can't really pardon them, politically speaking, if they don't 'fess up. And he's risking that they'll be indicted, which would be worse all the way around.
