JOHN HUANG LIED UNDER OATH

HUANG TOLD JUDICIAL WATCH A VERY DIFFERENT STORY THAN WHAT IS BEING PRESENTED AT THE SENATE HEARINGS


During his deposition at Judicial Watch headquarters in Washington, D.C. on October 29, 1996, John Huang lied under oath. Today's testimony before Senator Thompson's Governmental Affairs Committee again proves the obvious and strong contradictions between Huang's sworn testimony and the testimony of witnesses at the Senate Hearings:

Paula Greene of Stephens Inc. testified that Huang, while working at the Department of Commerce, visited Stephens Inc.'s Washington office, as many as several times a week, to receive packages and faxes. Yet, after discussing his employment association with the Stephens family while working for the Little Rock-based Worthen Bank, Huang testified under oath during his deposition at Judicial Watch headquarters that before becoming a Commerce Department employee: "I closed up my shop as a private sector person and moved over to the Department of Commerce."

Jack Cobb, a counsel for the majority of the Senate Governmental Affairs committee, also testified that the Committee had obtained records from Mr. Huang's home in California. Mr. Huang testified, under oath, to Judicial Watch, that he had no records at his home.

Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman stated: "John Huang has lied to Judicial Watch. He will likely prove to be the Mark Fuhrman of this scandal."

Mr. Klayman is providing gavel-to-gavel in depth analysis on National Empowerment Television's coverage of the Senate Campaign Finance Hearings. Mr. Klayman, the person who exposed this scandal, brings his unique perspective to the ongoing Senate hearings. Mr. Klayman is the only individual to question John Huang under oath about his role in the Clinton Administration's campaign finance scandal. Recently, Judicial Watch has asked the Court to order Mr. Huang to be brought back for a continuing deposition.
