...that Monday we made them an oral proffer, a statement of what Monica's testimony would be on all elements of the offenses they said were under investigation. We can't say what it says--that's privileged--but they took notes, and they were satisfied. They were very pleased. Thanks, they said. Now we need you to consent to a search of Monica and Marcia's apartment at the Watergate building. This was after midnight. We consented, and the search was set for 10 a.m. the next day. Next morning, 10 a.m., no FBI. Eleven a.m., no FBI. Finally...
...completely flabbergasted to find herself at the center of the storm. I'll be honest: I never imagined it either. I thought this was about Paula Jones v. William Jefferson Clinton. What's Monica feeling? She's feeling anxiety, fear, concern and, yes, anger. Who's going to give her a job after this? She is worried about her family. How mortifying all this is. When will she be able to walk in a park, go shopping at Target or on Rodeo Drive or Connecticut Avenue? Monica has been branded with a scarlet letter, an A for adultery. Now will...
...government didn't just want our client to tell her story; they wanted her wired, and they wanted her to record telephone calls with the President of the U.S., Vernon Jordan and others--at their will. Monica said, "Can they really make me wear a wire and invade other people's privacy like that?" She was frightened. They were threatening her mother with prosecution. But if they had all this collateral evidence, then they didn't need my client at all. Linda Tripp illegally taped 20 hours of conversation with Monica and then brought those tapes to Starr, a former...
Later, they called to ask about the nails in the wall where pictures once hung. They made it sound so sinister. I told them Monica was packing to move to New York for that new job with Revlon, remember? And I asked them if they had seen the boxes on the floor. They had, but never opened them. That's where Monica's pictures and mementos were! The next day, they examined Monica's computer hard drive and found that her brother and mother had used it, so they made it all sound sinister, like we gave them the wrong...
Finally we got to the point where they offered immunity again, 10 days afterward--it was Jan. 29 or 30. So for the next couple of days, we drafted agreements and wrote up an additional proffer at their request. They told us the issues, and Monica wrote the facts on each--if she had anything relevant. They went through three or four drafts of the immunity agreement. We agreed orally to a deal. Finally they sent us a letter confirming our oral agreement that the U.S. Government would promise not to prosecute Monica. This was Monday...
