There is no evidence that people working for Clinton were not involved:
Willey's Strange Encounter
U.S. HEADLINES
The tires on her car were mysteriously punctured with dozens of nails, the cat she had for many years suddenly disappeared.
By Jackie Judd ABCNEWS.com W A S H I N G T O N, June 17 - In the weeks before Kathleen Willey testified that President Clinton had made an unwanted sexual advance, she says that "someone" was trying to scare her. The tires on her car were mysteriously punctured with dozens of nails, the cat she had for many years suddenly disappeared. Then, just days before she testified in the Paula Jones lawsuit in early January, Willey was out jogging near her home.
The Stranger According to sources familiar with her account, a stranger approached her. The sources say Willey claims that even though she had never met him before, the man knew what had happened at her home and that he asked her if the tires had been fixed and if the cat had been found. He also apparently asked about her children by name, say the sources. The man then allegedly asked Willey, "Don't you get the message?" He then jogged off. Willey kept silent about all of it, and went ahead with the deposition in which she claimed President Clinton hugged, kissed and groped her during a meeting in the Oval Office. Clinton has strongly disputed Willey's account.
Elements of Story Confirmed Willey eventually did tell her lawyer and the independent counsel. The sources say investigators have since confirmed the damage to her car, which was repaired at a tire store outside Richmond. They also confirmed the cat's disappearance. The sources also say investigators have not been able to establish the identity of the stranger, or whether the jogging incident occurred as Willey, the sole witness, alleges. There is also no evidence that anyone working on behalf of the president was involved. For now, it is impossible to know whether this is just a bizarre story, or if it is a case of someone trying to intimidate a witness. abcnews.com |
