1997 — A few months after completing service as a House page, Tyson Vivyan, now 26, says he started receiving sexually suggestive messages from a person he later guessed was Foley. He told AP he and another former page later visited Foley in his Capitol Hill townhouse, where they drank soft drinks and ate pizza.

"I guess my claim to fame is that I pushed this from 2001 all the way back to 1997," he said.
He said the only documentation he has of any communication with Foley is a "chat log" from an IM in 2004, about the time Vivyan was getting a divorce.
