Then the special prosecutor's team investigating Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy's relationship with Tyson Foods met with the Whitewater investigators. Now a former chief lending officer for the S&L at the heart of the scandal has been named as a possible co-conspirator. HARRY DON DENTON was angered at the charge and told TIME: "I have given the independent counsel incredible amounts of information. If they're going after some big guns, they're gonna need...

For a Mexican prosecutor to make a televised appearance is exceptional; to do so in order to call members of the P.R.I. "demons" and accuse them of unsubstantiated crimes is unprecedented.
