Kathleen Willey had planned to spend the Labor Day weekend proofing pages of her forthcoming book, Target: In the Crosshairs of Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Instead, she says, someone broke into her Powhatan County home Friday, Aug. 31, and stole a copy of her unpublished 230-page manuscript. Her publishers are aghast, she says.
I think its a Clinton operative, Willey says. It sounds like Watergate. Its amateurish, but I know theyre not amateurs.
Style Weekly reported in its Sources Say column Sept. 5 that World Ahead press planned to publish Willeys book Nov. 20.
The book -- likely to get special attention considering Hillary Clintons presidential campaign -- details Willeys allegations that then-President Bill Clinton groped her during a private Oval Office visit in 1993.
The story swept the Richmonder, a political activist and former fan of Clinton, into a national scandal that included Paula Jones and eventually Monica Lewinski. Willey maintains that she and her family received threats from the Clinton camp and that a stranger approached her while jogging and instructed her to lie in her Jones disposition. She says the book details the intimidations she endured.
Of the weekend break-in, Willey says she was sleeping upstairs in her two-story house with the windows open Friday night (Aug. 31). She vaguely recalls her dogs barking, she says, but they quieted down and she went back to sleep.
I realized the next morning that my purse was gone, Willey says. She called the police and canceled her credit cards. Then, she says, she found her purse in the woods. The credit cards were there, but the cash was gone.
A spokesperson with the Powhatan Sheriffs Office confirmed that a deputy responded to a report of breaking and entering in the 2600 block of New Timber Way Sept. 1 -- in the block where Willey resides -- and that a purse was reported stolen.
What really has Willey reeling is that she discovered one of her two book manuscripts missing from the desk in her first-floor study. She says someone had also gotten onto her laptop computer, broken her car antenna and did something that caused her DirecTV service to malfunction.
I think they were looking for one thing and they made it try to look like a petty burglary, she says. Its scary stuff to realize somebody was in your house. Im still scared.
Thanks, Darth. Yeah, I wrote that a few years ago. Seems timely again.
You have talent, Brother. My favorite: “like little animals”.
she was reading a proof copy anyway, which would mean that the publisher already has a copy ready to typeset, pending corrections. (The book is supposed to be released Nov 20th.)
Check out the (many) Hollywood private detectives they have hired over the years.
You might like this one... it actually got published.

I'll guarantee you that the goons who did in several of the people on the "Clinton Body Count" were not working for free!
Of course, they didn't report the income on their IRS forms, but they knew there would be no questions asked.
Well, if Hsu turns up dead, they’ll say that the Republicans were trying to “Swiftboat” him, he couldn’t take the heat, and he committed suicide. Something like Vince Foster.
An absolutely tremendous piece! Is that a parody of some narration in an old movie?
Thanks, JS. It did come out sort of film noir, didn’t it?
No special parody was involved, though. Just thinkin’ like I thought Clinton would have tried to spin the events that Ms Willey said happened.
Even Hillary is entitled to the same presumption of innocence she would deny [White] Lacross players.

Kathleen Willey, the woman who says Bill Clinton groped her in the Oval Office, claims she was the target of an unusual house burglary over the weekend that nabbed a manuscript for her upcoming book, which promises explosive revelations that could damage Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
Willey told WND little else was taken from her rural Virginia home as she slept alone upstairs electronics and jewelry were left behind and she believes the Clintons were behind it.
The break-in, she said, reminded her of the widely reported incident 10 years ago in which she claimed she was threatened near the same Richmond-area home by a stranger just two days before she was to testify against President Clinton in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case.
The theft of the manuscript early Saturday morning was suspicious, she told WND, coming only days after the first mainstream media mention of her upcoming book, which is expected to include accusations of campaign finance violations and new revelations about harassment and threats by the Clintons and their associates.
“Here we go again; it’s the same thing that happened before,” Willey told WND. “They want you to know they were there. And they got what they wanted. They pretty much managed to terrorize me again. It scared me to death. It’s an awful feeling to know you’re sound asleep upstairs and someone is downstairs.”
The book, “Target: Caught in the Crosshairs of Bill and Hillary Clinton” by World Ahead Publishing, WND Books’ partner, is due for release in November. Willey said the stolen manuscript was not the book’s final copy.
Among its revelations is Willey’s identification of the person who threatened her just prior to her testimony against President Clinton a man who turned out to be linked to the Clintons.
Willey believes the break-in and theft were prompted by teasers of the book’s contents published last week in U.S. News and World Report’s “Washington Whispers” column and the New York Daily News.
Willey said she is writing the book because of persistent misunderstanding about what happened 10 years ago.
“There is so much misinformation out there, and I had been so badly maligned in the press,” she said. “I had the opportunity to set the record straight.
“And frankly,” she added, “Hillary Clinton is running for president, and it’s a story a lot of people should hear.”
Willey points out her story was deemed credible by the FBI, Independent Counsel Ken Starr and CBS “60 Minutes” producers who allowed her to recount it in front of 29 million viewers.

The WND article mentions “Nixonian”.
This Arkansas crew make the Nixon crew seem like choirboys.
Who is her publisher? I am willing to bet that their copy disappears too.
Nice!
Thank you!
