An astute commentor, one who is more knowledgable about the law than I am, pointed out that the act of leaking an operative's identity is not a crime unless it was done with knowledge that the operative was undercover - and that instead, what is probably going to bite someone in the butt is the coverup.
Technicalities aside, I am still hoping that someone answers for their backhanded actions. The leak was made in a spirit of pure retribution, if not also a warning to others. Very organized crime-ish.
You only cover something up if you think you've done something wrong. Regardless of whether the original act was illegal, it was still reprehensible.
