Scooter Libby, not Karl Rove, was on trial

A juror from the Scooter Libby trial, Denis Collins, had this to say about the panel's deliberations:

There was a tremendous amount of sympathy for Mr. Libby on the jury. It was said a number of times, "What are we doing with this guy here? Where's Rove? Where are these other guys?" I'm not saying we didn't think Mr. Libby was guilty of the things we found him guilty of. It seemed like he was, as Mr. Wells put it, he was the fall guy.

Karl Rove was not on trial, just I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby. I'm not an attorney, and I served on just one jury, but something is not right with Collins' statement.
