Democrats have long derided the investigation as a Republican ploy to destroy a popular Democratic president, but, as TIME White House correspondent Jay Branegan notes, "this independent counsel position has taken a life of its own. It's not beholden to either party, and it stands to hurt both of them." In an interview with the Washington Post on Monday, Ray said that he's bolstered his prosecutorial staff in recent weeks and will pursue charges of perjury, obstruction of justice and conspiracy in the Monica Lewinsky case as well as charges surrounding the coercion of Kathleen Willey.
