-Caveat Lector- With Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff For the story behind the story... Saturday Aug. 11, 2001 Second Roger Clinton Lawyer Won't Dispute Coke Report A second attorney for former first brother Roger Clinton declined Friday to challenge a report that Clinton had checked himself into an Arizona drug rehab center to battle a seven-year-long habit of "chronic cocaine abuse." Bart Williams, who is currently representing Clinton before a White Plains, New York grand jury probing Pardongate, wouldn't dispute the National Enquirer report, telling the Washington Post's Lloyd Grove: "I don't want to confirm or deny it. I'm just not going to comment on it." In January, Clinton received a pardon from his brother based on two previous convictions for cocaine possession and distribution. Neither the ex-president nor his wife, former first lady Hillary Clinton, have returned calls seeking comment about whether Roger used the drug while he visited them in the White House. On Wednesday, Los Angeles attorney Mark Geragos won a bid to have Hermosa Beach California prosecutors drop drunk driving charges against Roger, though a police tape recording of his Feb. 17 arrest shows him admitting that he'd consumed "probably four or five beers" and acknowledging that he couldn't pass a police sobriety test. Clinton, who didn't show up for his sentencing, pleaded guilty instead to a charge of reckless driving. Like Williams, Geragos told the New York Daily News that he would neither confirm nor deny the Enquirer cocaine story. New York attorney Ed Hayes, whose client Garland Lincecum says he paid Clinton's business partners $235,000 in exchange for the promise of a presidential pardon, told NewsMax.com Friday that news of Clinton's cocaine relapse didn't surprise him. "He has a long history of drug abuse," said Hayes. "Roger Clinton is a very, very pathetic character." ================================================================ Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends ================================================================ <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
