DATE: Tuesday, October 10, 2000 TIME: 2:00 p.m. PLACE: Federal Courthouse Third and Constitution Avenue, N.W. COURTROOM: 9 (4th Floor) (Washington, DC) At 2:00 p.m. today in Courtroom 9, Fourth Floor of the United States Federal Courthouse at Third and Constitution Avenue, N.W., Judicial Watch will take the testimony of White House Chief of Staff John D. Podesta who not only is the scandal-control person of the Clinton-Gore White House, but documents show is deeply enmeshed in the e-mail scandal. Mr. Podesta’s testimony arises in Judicial Watch’s $90-million Filegate class action lawsuit. “Whether Mr. Podesta is willing to admit it or not, the hard fact that the e-mailgate scandal reached as high as his office shows it is likely that Mr. and Mrs. Clinton also are part of the coverup,” stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman. “Mr. Podesta’s testimony will be most illuminating even if, like some other witnesses, he claims a faulty memory. There are plenty of witnesses who do remember what happened and, if Mr. Podesta does not, the preponderance of the evidence will weigh heavily in favor of the Plaintiffs, who are requesting stiff penalties and sanctions,” added Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. |
