"Congressional documents obtained by Newsweek show that Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. John Kerry met and personally corresponded with Johnny Chung, a central figure in the foreign-money scandals of 1996, prior to Chung's throwing Kerry a Beverly Hills fund-raiser. Kerry has previously maintained that his first meeting with Chung was at the September 9, 1996, event, reports Investigative Correspondent Michael Isikoff in the February 9 issue of Newsweek (on newsstands Monday, February 2). Chung, who visited the Clinton White House 49 times, eventually pleaded guilty to funneling $28,000 in illegal contributions to the campaigns of Kerry and Bill Clinton."

"Chung was charged yesterday in Los Angeles with funneling illegal contributions to the 1996 Clinton-Gore campaign by asking friends and employees of his office technology firm to make donations for which they were later reimbursed. He also is charged with engaging in a similar "straw donor" scheme to assist the 1996 reelection bid of Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.)."
