139. a TRIAL can't be sealed
once someone is indicted, the next step is a trial, which by law has to be public. They can't keep this secret forever. Under normal circumstances the trial phase would begin shortly after the indictment, like in Libby's case, we are hearing news about it regularly.

so in order to keep this sealed, it seems there would have to be an effort to postpone the trial.
