Don't they realize????

the news is out that the feds have dropped all charges against Robert Blagojevich, brother of former governor Rod Blagojevich and his co-defendant during the recent trial. the US attorney said the move was made in the interests of justice and the press has dutifully reported this. I suppose that it is too much to ask the media to realize that Robert will now be called as a witness by the feds. While he was a defendant, he had a right to avoid testifying. Now, since he will not be asked to incriminate himself, he will be fair game. My guess is that the prosecutors think that this will enable them to finally get this case across the goal line.
