Forensic evidence developed by the FBI lab links the employee, Juanita Yvette Lozano, to a package containing sensitive internal Bush campaign documents and a videotape of Bush practicing for the upcoming presidential debate, the sources said. The package arrived Sept. 13 in the Washington offices of Tom Downey, an adviser to Vice President Gore. Downey turned the material over to the FBI. A federal source said the label on the Express Mail package received by Downey also directly corresponds to the date and time Lozano was filmed by a security camera mailing a package in the Austin post office. In televised interviews this week, Lozano strongly denied being the source of the material, and her boss, Bush media consultant Mark McKinnon, yesterday vouched for her innocence. Both said she was returning pants by mail to a Gap retail outlet. As a sign of the political sensitivity of the matter, FBI Director Louis J. Freeh has taken a direct role in overseeing the investigation. How the materials were taken and who took them have been the subject of intense speculation in political circles, proving a growing distraction to both the Gore and Bush campaigns as the first nationally televised debate Tuesday nears. washingtonpost.com
