The entire investigation was intended to find out if a crime had been committed, and to nail someone for it.
After two solid years of collecting evidence and interviewing everyone they could think of, not one indictment was laid down for anything related to "outing" Valerie Plame, or for leaking classified information, or for anything having anything to do with violating national security laws.
Now I suppose it's possible that Fitzgerald lost track of the original intent, but I think it's more likely that nothing was found that could possibly be prosecuted.
Of course, more than a few people pointed that out a long time ago. Liberals howling that this is the worst breach of national security since someone sent the Soviets the keys to the nuclear bomb doesn't necessarily make it true.
