Press Conference Today When:12:30 p.m., September 21, 2000 Where: Steps of U.S. Courthouse Who: Kathleen Willey Schwicker and Counsel (Washington, DC) Kathleen Willey Schwicker, the woman who was assaulted by President Bill Clinton in the Oval Office pantry, and who was and remains a material witness in the on-going Lewinsky grand jury proceeding of the Office of Independent Counsel, has filed a complaint for violation of privacy and civil rights, as well as other claims. The lawsuit, filed yesterday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, comes on the heels of a finding by the Honorable Royce C. Lamberth in companion litigation over another Clinton-Gore Administration scandal, Filegate, that the President, with the aid of others in The White House, had committed a criminal violation of the Privacy Act in releasing documents from Kathleen Willey Schwicker’s government files to smear and harm her reputation and credibility. The complaint, which was filed by the public interest law firm Judicial Watch on Kathleen Willey Schwicker’s behalf, speaks for itself, and can be found on Judicial Watch’s Internet site at www.judicialwatch.org. It details her long ordeal to simply testify truthfully in the on-going Lewinsky and other Clinton-Gore Administration scandals, free from threats, intimidation and coercion, and personal injury. At a press conference to be held at 12:30 p.m. on the steps of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (3rd & Constitution Ave., NW), Kathleen Willey Schwicker will deliver a statement about this case. |
