MOTHER FEARED THAT CLINTON WOULD SEND OUT DEATH HIT
DRUDGE REPORT THU DEC 03 1998 21:42:08 UTC
"My mother's big fear is that he's going to send someone out to kill me!"

Those are the words spoken on tape by a panicked Monica Lewinsky at the
height of the White House sex cover-up late last year. Lewinsky, referring
to President Clinton, made the shocking confession to Linda Tripp. A
confession that was initially overlooked by members of the Judiciary
Committee, but one that has now caught the attention of several lawmakers.

"The more you study Starr's report, and yes, some of us who care about the
upcoming vote have been looking at all of the evidence in this case, the
more you see that Monica Lewinsky was in constant fear of her physical
well-being," a committee member told the DRUDGE REPORT on Tuesday.

On July 29, 1998, Linda Tripp gave details to the grand jury about other
Lewinsky death fears -- fears that were not captured tape.

Tripp: "... They were scary... conversations became increasingly more
frightening to me: 'You'll be destroyed, they'll destroy you.' 'The least
of your problems will be the job.' 'Look at people who have crossed them in
the past, people end up dead around them.' Monica said over and over and
over again. 'They know you have two children.' 'They know where you live.'
'You are crazy to do this.' She also intimated and in fact said to me that,
'I fear for my life, my mother fears for my life.'"

The ranking member, who asked not to be identified, hopes to explore
Lewinsky's fears during an upcoming public session with White House
lawyers.

"We have no answers to why Monica's mother was afraid that the president
was going to send someone out to kill her daughter," the lawmaker said.
"Were direct threats, of some kind, made? It is a very curious part of the
story that, to me, has not been resolved. Someone has to raise this issue."
