WASHINGTON: Just what did that "improper" relationship involve, anyway? As Monica Lewinsky returned for five hours of grand jury grilling Thursday, a special issue of TIME reports that her account of the White House tryst may be significantly damaging to President Clinton. While the President denied perjuring himself and admitted receiving only oral sex, Lewinsky told jurors that Clinton fondled her breasts and genitals. Such activity was unquestionably covered by the definition of sex Clinton was shown in his January deposition, when he denied a sexual relationship with Lewinsky. When presented with her critically different version, the President refused...
WASHINGTON: Now that he's confessed, what about the mess on the dress? Sources close to Ken Starr say they have obtained a sample of President Clinton's DNA Thursday, and that it will be sent directly to the FBI crime lab where Monica's infamous blue Gap dress currently resides. Prosecutors most likely obtained the sample -- blood or saliva -- from Bethesda Naval Hospital, where the President has his annual physicals...
...enough to tip the balance in the DOJ's bitter civil war over whether to call for a campaign-finance independent counsel. Repeated calls for a probe from Louis Freeh and prosecutor Charles La Bella have so far gone unheeded by Janet Reno; according to a report in Thursday's New York Times, however, the A-G is beginning to swing. Reno has until the end of August to order a 90-day preliminary inquiry into the allegations against Gore. That's just enough time to give Al a nice "welcome home" present...
WASHINGTON: Thought it was over? Not a chance. Monica Lewinsky has been summoned to return to the courthouse on Thursday -- where Ken Starr, in a classic prosecutorial pincer movement, will try to get her to contradict President Clinton's Monday testimony. If she does, Starr has a crack at getting the President for perjuring himself before a federal grand jury -- a much more serious charge than any Clinton has faced so far, and one that could bring the country a step closer to impeachment...
Bill Clinton gets to take a couple of weeks off to recover from that 4-hour grilling on Monday, but for Ken Starr's grand jury it's just another day at the office. Thursday, the select 23 could once again hear testimony from Monica Lewinsky, and possibly even Clinton pal Bruce Lindsey. Presumably, Monica will be asked to fill in any gaps left after the President's testimony...
