The Chandra Levy case is the most famous unsolved murder in modern Washington, a mystery involving sex, power and secrets. At its center is a vivacious young intern who had crossed paths with a handsome, married congressman. The story triggered months of feverish worldwide media attention in 2001, before the Sept. 11 attacks shoved it aside and the investigation stalled.
The Washington Post spent a year reconstructing the disappearance of Chandra Levy and the investigation into her death. Reporters interviewed police officials, investigators and suspects, many for the first time, and obtained details about dozens of previously unknown private conversations and events, including former Rep. Gary Condit's first interview with the newspaper in seven years.
The Post's examination of the case will unfold in a 12-chapter serial and epilogue in print and online. The serial will show how the sensational nature of the media coverage quickly overwhelmed the investigation. It will expose the fleeting acts that later loomed large and will reveal undisclosed clues, meaningful and false: a DNA swab in a dark parking lot, Chandra's last computer search, a conversation with a jailhouse informant who said he had the key to the case.
In the end, the serial will reveal how an enormous effort by the D.C. police, the FBI and prosecutors was undercut by a chain of mistakes, a misdirected focus and missed opportunities that allowed a killer to escape justice.

I agree. IIRC, Dick Cheney was Condit’s alibi.
They made a fuss over this one because it was connected to a Congressman and a liberal.
This interview was before anyone knew of her involvement with Condit.

Who Killed Chandra Levy?
The Washington Post ^ | July 14, 2008 | Sari Horwitz,
Scott Higham and Sylvia Moreno
On the WaPo timeline, it says that on May 7, Chandra’s dad tells the DC police that his daughter was dating Condit. The radio interview I heard was on May 11 after 4pm. It was a phone interview and the lady kept talking about her missing daughter and hoping she’d be home by Mother’s Day, that Sunday. It was the first I’d heard of Chandra Levy. And living in the DC area at the time, I would listen to WTOP during my 2.5-hr commute to and from No.Va.
The Chandra Levy murder was handled much the same way as the anthrax investigation ... ineptly, in the extreme. Once again very similar to the Clinton era death of Vincent Foster in Fort Marcy Park. A very distinct trend evolving here ... with Federal, State, District law enforcement in the greater Washington, DC area all needing to answer questions.
Don’t waste your time on me.
I’m more concerned about other things.
No. That would be the Vince Foster murder. But I imagine the Washington Posthole won't be doing any 12-chapter serial and epilogue on that bungled investigation.
A 12-part series? They had better name the Murderer in Chapter 12 if they are to justify all this front page attention!
This guy is sooo involved ! Everything is too close together all you have to do is look at the map.
How about citing sources, mentioning evidence, referring to documentation, putting up, or shutting up?
