Clinton Secret Police Allegedly Used to Silence Women The Toronto Star, Canada's Largest Circulation Newspaper October 1, 1998 Kathleen Kenna, Washington Bureau Chief The testimony of former Clinton strategist Dick Morris alleged the White House and Clinton's presidential campaign teams used a group known as "the secret police" to silence women who might divulge details of affairs with Clinton. The White House and Clinton's personal lawyers in Arkansas and Washington have denied the allegations. But Clinton's lawyers acknowledged they have retained private detectives since 1994 "to assist in the defence of matters related to the president." Lawyers David Kendall and Robert Bennett have refused to disclose why the White House or Clinton needs investigators. The testimony of one of those detectives, Terry Lenzner, is one of the most-awaited of more than 70 witnesses. Lenzner's Washington-based Investigative Group International is considered one of the largest and most powerful "opposition research" groups. Neither Lenzner nor his publicists have returned calls. But another lawyer has signed an affidavit claiming he was told repeatedly by a Clinton associate about "clean-up" campaigns to intimidate alleged Clinton lovers. Florida lawyer Jack Thompson last night reasserted his three-page affidavit [filed by Paula Jones's lawyers in her lawsuit] charging that his former friend, Arkansas lawyer Samuel Jones, was paid to keep such women quiet during the 1992 campaign. Jones works for a LIttle Rock law firm in which Lindsey is a partner. "He said it was his job to find these women and shut them up," Thompson said. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This Washington bureau chief called me; I didn't call her. I would add that multiple individuals were on the phone calls with Samuel Jones, Lindsey's partner, who listened to Jones tell me of "tracking these women down and doing whatever it took to silence them." They will swear to what they heard. Dick Morris and I have spoken. Our stories mesh perfectly. Clinton has been obstructing justice through witness tampering for well over a decade.
