Lawyer Loses Whitewater Notes to Car Burglar
July 15, 1995|From Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A burglar broke into the car of a White House lawyer preparing for Senate questioning in the Whitewater affair and stole copies of her handwritten notes about the handling of the late Vincent Foster's papers, a source familiar with the matter said Friday.
Foster, who was the deputy White House counsel, died in 1993.
The blue gym bag stolen by the burglar also contained copies of the file that White House lawyer Cheryl Mills kept on the 1993 federal raid on the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Tex., said the source, who is close to the White House and spoke only on condition of anonymity.
The binder of Waco material included copies of Mills' notes and some correspondence between the White House and Congress, said the source.
The break-in late Tuesday night, in which police said the right window of Mills' car was broken, "will feed all the conspiracy nuts who are doing all the stuff on Whitewater," commented White House Press Secretary Mike McCurry. He noted that the burglar grabbed Mills' wallet and portable telephone as well as her papers.
