Broaddrick Accusation Fails Lie Detector Test

DATELINE: Palm Beach, Florida -- Investigator Jack Harwood of Palm Beach says Juanita Broaddrick's assertion that Bill Clinton raped her in an Arkansas hotel room 21 years ago is a lie.

Using a Verimetrics Instrument, a cutting edge computerized psychological stress evaluator and lie detector that measures stress levels in a person's voice, Harwood has concluded that Broaddrick did have a sexual encounter with Clinton on the day she claims he sexually assaulted her, but it wasn't forced.

"During her telling of the sexual encounter," said Harwood in an interview published this afternoon by National Enquirer, "she has low stress in her voice, which shows she is being truthful. But she's lying when she couches it as an unwanted assault or attack by Clinton."

Harwood measured the stress in Broaddrick's voice during her February 24th interview on TV's "Dateline" using the Varimetrics device.

One example cited in the article:

After Broaddrick said Clinton bit her lip and had sex with her against her will, [Lisa Myers] asked her: "And there is no doubt in your mind that that's what happened?"
She replied: "No doubt whatsoever."

"Broaddrick is not being truthful in this answer either," Harwood explained. "She has tremendous stress in her voice which shows she is lying."

Hmmmm... looks like I was right about Juanita.
DATELINE: Alexandria, Virginia -- Speaking of polygraph-type devices, it seems some of Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's witnesses he called in a case involving presidential accuser Kathleen Willey had problems when they were hooked up to the ol' lie detector, according to Julie Hiatt Steele's defense attorney Eric Dubelier.

Friday afternoon, Dubelier revealed this information during a court session as part of an unsuccessful argument that Starr improperly assembled an obstruction indictment against his client. Steele has claimed that Kathleen Willey asked her to lie on her behalf to Newsweek writer Michael Isikoff to bolster Willey's assertion that President Clinton made an untoward advance.

The exact words of Dubelier: "There is a substantial polygraph issue with regard to their own witnesses... results of polygraph examinations [are] an issue for some of their own witnesses."

The exact information has been ordered to be kept secret by U.S. District Judge Claude Hilton after Starr asserted he is continuing to investigate allegations of perjury and obstruction of justice in connection with the Willey matter.

During the course of the day's motions, Starr dropped from the indictment an allegation that Mrs. Steele tried to obstruct Starr's grand jury investigation by making false statements on CNN's "Larry King Live."

An interesting "fun fat" about Dubelier: he worked as a prosecutor in Starr's office investigating the so-called Filegate matter.

Ms. Steele's trial commences March 30th -- that is, unless Kenneth W. Starr decides to drop the charges and save himself a little embarrassment, or maybe do something useful like investigate statements made by Paula Jones and Linda Tripp on "Larry King Live."

Now, wouldn't it be really ironic if it turned out one of the witnesses with polygraph problems turned out to be none other than Kathleen Willey?

That would be two down -- and a great reason to wire up Paula Jones.

(* Just a dishonest smear campaign, bubba. Clinton played around, but he never mishandled his lady friends)
