FBI SEIZES DOCUMENTS IN CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION OF HILLARY CLINTON SENATE CAMPAIGN
Storage Facility Raided, Clinton Photographs and Documents Seized
Search Warrant Sought Documents Related to Hillary’s Campaign For Senate, Hollywood Tribute To Bill Clinton, Hillary’s Campaign Finance Director Also Targeted
(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, reported that the FBI seized documents relating to Hillary Clinton’s campaign for the U.S. Senate. The documents were seized in a May 30 raid of a California storage facility containing documents of Peter Paul, the entrepreneur who funded Hillary Clinton’s Senate campaign with over $2 million dollars in direct, in-kind contributions which were never reported by Hillary Clinton or her Senate campaign, as required by law. Mr. Paul's money funded the August, 2000 production of “The Hollywood Gala Farewell Tribute To President Clinton,” which featured many Hollywood stars. Mr. Paul’s support for the event was also publicly denied by Mrs. Clinton in The Washington Post and in a debate with then opponent Rick Lazio. The government is seeking the cooperation of Mr. Paul, who is in a Brazilian prison pursuant to an U.S. extradition request on alleged stock and bank fraud. Mr. Paul has already provided evidence to Justice Department investigators in Brazil about the criminal activity of Bill and Hillary Clinton. Mr. Paul told the Department of Justice about the documents and storage facility ten months ago, and had provided them with documentation (checks, videos, financial statements) of his work for the Clintons in early 2001. Mr. Paul donated the over $2 million to the Clinton campaign as part of a $17 million offer to Bill Clinton to work with him after he left the Oval Office.
The search warrant authorizing the FBI raid of the storage facility specifically references the Clintons and the New York Senate campaign. The search warrant authorizes the seizure of:
Records relating to New York Senate 2000, the Hollywood Gala Salute to President William Jefferson Clinton, the Federal Election Commission, David Rosen and Aaron Tonken...
(David Rosen was the Director of Finance for Hillary Clinton’s Senate campaign, and Aaron Tonken is a Democrat fundraiser who raised money for the Clintons. Both men have knowledge of Mr. Paul’s contributions.
)
“Mr. Paul could have turned the documents about the Clintons over to the FBI months ago under a cooperation agreement. Instead, he waits in a Brazilian dungeon for the Ashcroft Justice Department to get serious about this corruption case. So it is a welcome sign that the Justice Department is turning up the heat on this new crime scandal concerning the Clintons,” stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.
Attorney General John Ashcroft received 59,535 petitions late last year from Judicial Watch supporters protesting Mr. Paul’s disparate treatment and demanding full justice against the Clintons in this new scandal.
Sadly,there are more and more of us each day. The worst part is that Bubba-2 had EVERYTHING in place to have been one of the great ones,and threw it away.
I think so,too. Notice how Bubbette! easily turned big,bad Rudy into her bitch?
I think she would look best in a federal gas chamber.
After four years with FReeRepublic these Judicial Watch posts are so predictable ... nothing ever comes of them, yet FReepers continue to get sucked in. Almost without exception three or four posts into a new JW article you see the "Go Larry Go' post ... it appears to be almost orchestrated ... which leads me to believe it's a set up. I, at one time, contributed to JW ... however, as time went by with much bally-hoo and no results, gave it up ... no point in pushing good money after bad.
Is that orchastrated enough for you?
GO JUDICIAL WATCH, GO!
And for Fred Mertz, I will say: GO LARRY GO!
And just for you VA: BTTT!
And watch the conspiracy theories abound : )
(Do I sound pathetic enough?)
Unfortunately, you seem to want him to perform amazing tasks that no one else can do either.
Larry Klayman and Judicial Watch have always done everything they were able legally, to do in their civil cases.
If you are looking for criminal indictments of the Clintons, you should be placing both this heavy burden and blame on the Justice Department, because they have the power to federally prosecute the Clintons and put them behind prison bars. Unfortunately, John Ashcroft and the Bush Administration have been derelict in their duty to fully carry out the rule of law in this country.
They are only reporting the FBI did this, and the only input JW has is their kind comment about Ashcroft at the end.
Go Larry Go.
leech.
And seeing as Klaypot and Clintons are bossom buddies, Larry probably gave Hillary a heads-up and provided her time to clear out important info.
TLB, he is a crook; if he ever was to win a case against one party, he would lose most of his support (esp. from the Dems).
TLB, run the other way!
Yes, it IS a credible story.
But it is NOT a credible source.
He asked for a credible source. Good thing you picked up on that ;)
Was this story posted to promote what the FBI has done, or to promote JW?
If FR is becoming a wholesaler of quacks like JW and Keyes, it won't make it. No integrity.
Don't listen to him.
