<He has slept with 300 women, etc (btw that fact in particular makes
this Broadrick story a bit inconceivable - hundreds of women, year after year and this one "violent" case from 20 years ago? I smell a rat).>
Michelle,
If you were one of these victims, would you come forward ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A 1969 charge by a Eileen Wellstone, 19-year-old English
woman who said Clinton assaulted her after she met him at a pub
near the Oxford University campus where the future President
was a student. A retired State Department employee, who asked
not to be identified, confirmed this week that he spoke with the
family of the girl and filed a report with his superiors. Clinton
admitted having sex with the girl, but claimed it was consensual.
The victim's family declined to pursue the case;
In 1972, a 22-year-old woman told campus police at Yale
University that she was sexually assaulted by Clinton, who was a
law student at the college. No charges were filed, but retired
campus policemen contacted by Capitol Hill Blue confirmed the
incident. The woman, tracked down by Capitol Hill Blue last
week, confirmed the incident, but declined to discuss it further;
In 1974, a female student at the University of Arkansas
complained that then-law professor Bill Clinton tried to prevent her
from leaving his office during a conference. She said he groped
her and forced his hand inside her blouse. Clinton claimed the
student ''came on'' to him and she left the school shortly after the
incident. Reached at her home in Texas last week, the former
student confirmed the incident, but declined to go public with her
account. Several former students at the University have confirmed
the incident in confidential interviews and said there were other
reports of Clinton attempting to force himself on female students;
Broaddrick, a volunteer in Clinton's gubernatorial campaign, said
he raped her in 1978. Mrs. Broaddrick required treatment for a
bruised and torn lip, which she said she suffered when Clinton bit
her during the rape;
From 1978-1980, during Clinton's first term as governor of
Arkansas, state troopers assigned to protect the governor reported
seven complaints from women who said Clinton forced, or
attempted to force, himself on them sexually. One retired state
trooper said in an interview that the common joke among those
assigned to protect Clinton was "who's next?";
Carolyn Moffet, a legal secretary in Little Rock in 1979, said she
met then-governor Clinton at a political fundraiser and shortly
thereafter received an invitation to meet the governor in his hotel
room. "I was escorted there by a state trooper. When I went in,
he was sitting on a couch, wearing only an undershirt. He pointed
at his penis and told me to suck it. I told him I didn't even do that
for my boyfriend and he got mad, grabbed my head and shoved it
into his lap. I pulled away from him and ran out of the room."
Elizabeth Ward, the Miss Arkansas who won the Miss America
crown in 1982, told friends she was forced by Clinton to have sex
with him shortly after she won her state crown. Last year, Ward,
who is now married with the last name of Gracen, told an
interviewer she did have sex with Clinton but said it was
consensual. She later recanted that interview and said had been
threatened by Clinton supporters into claiming the sex was
consensual.
Paula Corbin, an Arkansas state worker, filed a sexual
harassment case against Clinton after an encounter in a Little
Rock hotel room where the then-governor exposed himself and
demanded oral sex. Clinton settled the case with Jones recently
with a cash payment.
Sandra Allen James, a former Washington, DC, political
fundraiser says Presidential candidate-to-be Clinton invited her to
his hotel room during a political trip to the nation's capital in 1991, pinned her against the wall and stuck his hand up her dress. She
says she screamed loud enough for the Arkansas State Trooper
stationed outside the hotel suite to bang on the door and ask if
everything was all right, at which point Clinton released her and
she fled the room. When she reported the incident to her boss, he
advised her to keep her mouth shut if she wanted to keep working.
Miss James has since married and left Washington. Reached at
her home last week, the former Miss James said she later learned
that other women suffered the same fate at Clinton's hands when
he was in Washington during his Presidential run.
Christy Zercher, a flight attendant on Clinton's leased campaign
plane in 1992, says Presidential candidate Clinton exposed himself
to her, grabbed her breasts and made explicit remarks about oral
sex. A video shot on board the plane by ABC News shows an
obviously inebriated Clinton with his hand between another young
flight attendant's legs. Zercher said later in an interview that White
House attorney Bruce Lindsey tried to pressure her into not going
public about the assault.
Kathleen Willey, a White House volunteer, reported that Clinton
grabbed her, fondled her breast and pressed her hand against his
genitals during an Oval Office meeting in November, 1993. Willey,
who told her story in a 60 Minutes interview, became a target of
a White House-directed smear campaign after she went public. |
