-Caveat Lector- XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX WED, JUNE 23, 1999 11:21:58 ET XXXXX STARR PUTS HILLARY ON WITNESS LIST IN HUBBELL TRIAL FOX NEWS on Wednesday confirmed a DRUDGE REPORT [MARCH 18, 1999] that prosecutors working for Kenneth Starr are preparing to order Hillary Clinton to testify in the upcoming trial of her former law partner Webster Hubbell. The independent counsel's office and defense attorneys have both submitted witness lists to the court. And Mrs. Clinton is listed as a "prosecution witness," according to FOX NEWS' David Shuster. The development means that at the very time Mrs. Clinton is starting her campaign for a New York Senate Seat, Starr will be attempting to get information from her under oath about a questionable land deal in Arkansas. FLASHBACK: XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX THURSDAY, MARCH 18, 1999 02:29:33 ET XXXXX EXCLUSIVE: STARR TEAM PLANNING TO CALL FIRST LADY IN HUBBELL TRIAL WASHINGTON -- Prosecutors from the Office of the Independent Counsel have put Hillary Rodham Clinton on their witness list in the coming trial of her former law partner, Webster Hubbell, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. The trial is scheduled to begin sometime in the summer. "She's on the working witness list," one case insider told the DRUDGE REPORT in Washington. "[The OIC] is quietly preparing its court case." Mrs. Clinton is referred to 36 times in the fraud indictment filed against Hubbell. The raw spectacle of calling the First Lady of the United States as a witness in a public trial would not come without risk for Starr prosecutors. "The move could backfire and could quickly turn into a public relations disaster... if it turns out that Mrs. Clinton has nothing more to offer," said a source directly involved in case planning. "She has not been very helpful solving the Castle Grande riddle before the grand jury." One option actively being discussed inside of Starr's office, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, is to call Mrs. Clinton for fresh videotaped testimony. "Instead of dragging her into public court, she may be given the option of appearing as a witness on tape, much like the president did in the original Whitewater trial in Little Rock," said the case insider. It is not clear if Mrs. Clinton has been notified that her name is on an active witness list for the Hubbell trial. The insider cautioned that Ken Starr himself has not yet "completely signed-off" on calling Mrs. Clinton, but prosecutors chosen to argue the case in court have become convinced that she is a key witness and she will be subpoenaed to appear.
