JOHNNY CHUNG SUES CLINTON-GORE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND OFFICIALS What: Press Conference with Johnny Chung, Larry Klayman Where: Los Angeles Federal Courthouse Steps312 Spring Street When: Tuesday, August 8, 10:00 a.m (Pacific Time) Lawsuit Alleges Violation of Civil Rights Clinton-Gore Justice Department's Actions Almost Got Chung and His Family Killed (Washington, D.C.) Johnny Chung, a former fundraiser for Bill and Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party, will file a lawsuit today against the Clinton-Gore Justice Department and unnamed Justice officials for civil rights violations. As a result, Mr. Chung's and his family's lives were put in danger. Mr. Chung is being represented by Judicial Watch, Inc., the public interest law firm that investigates and prosecutes government corruption. "Chung is one of the only figures in the Chinagate scandal to cooperate fully with investigators and directly implicate Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Al Gore in illegal fundraising. Rather than using Mr. Chung to indict this trio, the actions of the Clinton-Gore Justice Department in leaking Mr. Chung's whereabouts at a sensitive time were calculated to silence him by subjecting he and his family to harm. This lawsuit will finally get him justice and expose fully the facts behind the Chinagate cover-up," stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman. |
