If you have evidence that someone did something, you can bring an indictment without one person's testimony. If it is a solid case they would not need the testimony. And when someone does not want to give testimony, they suffer consequences.
And this sacred system had to journalist willing to go to jail because they would not reveal a source that gave them illegal information from that same Grand Jury. They were willing to go to jail because their cause in their mind was just. And if I am not mistaken they were plead guilty to a crime for withholding their sources.
And who cares, if the man wants to spend jail time that is what he is willing to do. Why do you care what his motives are or what they are not? I know I do not even care. Remember he was being charged with more than information on Barry. He was accused of selling a drug that might have to do with other people that could do more harm to his family than anything Barry can ever do to him.
Peace
