"ASPEN, Colo. — Attorney General Eric Holder signaled here that the Justice Department may be conducting a sweeping criminal investigation into the Gulf Coast oil spill, saying that its suspected targets may cover more than just BP. "There are a variety of entities and a variety of people who are the subjects of that investigation," Holder told CBS' Bob Schieffer at the Aspen Ideas Festival. "For people to conclude that BP is the focus of this investigation might not be correct." Holder said he wouldn't go "any further" when Schieffer asked if it might be correct to assume BP could still be the main target, and he "wouldn't put a timetable" on when any indictments might come down."
