Classified Information Procedures Act[edit]

The article states: "The Classified Information Procedures Act (CIPA), a.k.a. the Graymail Law, of 1980 was designed to counter this tactic (meaning #1) by allowing judges to review classified material in secret, so that the prosecution can proceed without fear of publicly disclosing sensitive intelligence." But the linked article seems to point to meaning #2, not meaning #1. The linked article includes the sentence "CIPA was designed to meet the trial tactic of "greymail"—the intimation by a defendant formerly connected to the intelligence community that at trial he may need to disclose classified information." Reading this sentence alone could lead to the conclusion that meaning #1 is intended. But the following sentence is "CIPA requires the defense attorneys to give notice of the classified information they want to use, and it requires the judge to rule on materiality." This suggests that the true intended meaning is #2.

I would change the Wikipedia article myself, but I defer to experts. Anomalocaris 03:49, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and clarified the language in the text to say "the first tactic above," although I tend to agree with Anomalocaris' interpretation. However, because of many recent newstories using the term "graymail" in relation to the I. Libby Lewis case, I felt that the article needed to read as smoothly as possible until a more substantive revision took place. Gorjus 15:00, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
