...impeach a wildly popular President with nothing more than tantalizing but indirect facts. Which is why Starr has set his sights on two eyewitnesses whose testimony could seal the case. One of them, a key source tells TIME, is a Secret Service agent who has told colleagues he saw Clinton and Lewinsky in a compromising situation. The existence of this agent was first reported in January by the Dallas Morning News, but the paper retracted the story after its primary source recanted. The TIME source says Starr has reason to believe that the story is true and hopes to compel...
...began obsessing over twin passions: girls and gangs. "He said he'd give anything to be in a gang," says Niemeyer. "He'd kill anyone to be in a gang." Schoolmates in Jonesboro say Mitch began wearing red to signal his membership in the Bloods, a ruse that they saw straight through. A wannabe, most of them concluded.

Two officers chased the boys down as they were heading toward their getaway van. They offered only slight resistance, and the police easily disarmed them of nine guns (another gun was found on the ground). Said Officer Terry McNatt, "They didn't say anything." They stayed silent for the entire drive to the Craighead County sheriff's office...
...Atlantic was of a frightened, scarlet-faced President Bill Clinton shouting "Back!" as he was nearly trampled by screaming, shoving crowds in Ghana's capital of Accra. Complained the Rev. Jesse Jackson, shepherding Clinton across the African continent: "A half-million people were reduced to 40. So America saw us through a keyhole rather than a door." Unruly mobs in sweltering heat, photo ops with men who came to power at gunpoint, people dancing in brilliantly colored garb: those were often the familiar scenes seized on by the press...
