Former volunteer gives testimony fciinton accepts apoli
WASHINGTON (AP) — Kath
leen Willey, accompanied by an
FBI agent assigned to the office of
Whitewater prosecutor Kenneth
Starr, appeared Tuesday before a
federal grand jury that wants to
know more about an encounter
she had with President Clinton.
Starr’s office has indicated a
special interest in Willey, accord
ing to news reports, to determine
whether she was asked by some
one with ties to the administra
tion to alter her account of the
November 1993 meeting with the
president.
A former White House volun
teer, Willey was likely to be ques
tioned about whether she was
urged to deny that Clinton made
an unsolicited sexual advance
during their meeting. She was
seeking a paid job at the time be
cause her family had desperate
financial problems. Her husband
had committed suicide the day
she met with Clinton, although
Willey did not know about his
death at the time.
Willey was one of the few wit
nesses in the seven-week grand
jury investigation to show up at
the federal courthouse here in
the company of Starr’s investiga
tors rather than private attor
neys.
Her attorney, Dan Gecker, did
not return repeated phone calls
to his office in Richmond, Va.
Willey declined to speak with
reporters as she was spirited into
a car to be driven away after a full
day of testimony.
“ABC News” and Newsweek
have reported that Nathan
Landow, a Democratic fund rais
er from Maryland, urged Willey
to deny that Clinton made a sex
ual advance.
Landow has denied he did so,
contending that he knew Willey
through his daughter, a White
House volunteer, and his son-in-
law, Michael Cardozo — a trustee
of the president’s first legal de
fense fund.
FBI warns parents about Internet dangers
WASHINGTON (AP) — FBI Director
Louis Freeh, briefing lawmakers on the bu
reau’s efforts to combat child pornography
on the Internet, urged the public Tuesday to
become more aware of the computer tech
nology’s clandestine dangers.
Freeh and other witnesses told a Senate
Appropriations subcommittee that the best
way to prevent unsuspecting children from
becoming victims of computer-sawy sexu
al predators is to teach them and their par
ents safe Internet and on-line practices.
“Any contact with a voice on the Internet
is unknown contact,” Freeh told the panel,
chaired by Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., that helps
decide Justice Department funding. “You
don’t know who you’re speaking to because
anybody can be anybody on the Internet.”
Linda Hooper, the FBI agent in charge of
its Baltimore field office, said parental su
pervision was “most important” when a
child surfs the Internet or signs on to an on
line service.
She said parents should keep the family
computer in a high-traffic area of the home,
such as a kitchen, where a child is less like
ly to engage in sex chatter, and not in a bed
room where a child can close the door.
Hooper also said parents should warn chil
dren never to give out personal information
or meet anyone they’ve contacted through
the Internet without parental approval.
Freeh told lawmakers the FBI was
putting to good use the additional $10 mil
lion Congress put in its 1998 budget for the
Innocent Images program, a nationwide
initiative to combat child pornography on
the Internet and the sexual exploitation of
children.
