---------- Forwarded message ---------- Dear John, Pursuant to our call last night, here are four documents which I mentioned. The first is the affidavit and cover letter from her lawyer. This document makes clear that Broaddrick is indeed “Jane Doe #5” in the Paula Jones suit. I believe this has been unsealed but before we release it publicly, I’d need to check. The second is a redacted copy of the same document, deleting her name and referring to her simply as “Jane Doe #5”. This document is public. Broaddrick’s lawyers made a motion to quash her deposition subpoena, and that motion was denied, and she testified on January 9, 1998, at which time she reaffirmed the accuracy of her affidavit. I can’t locate a copy of the deposition, but I’ve called up my files on the case. According to the Office of Independent Counsel’s description of it, Broaddrick not only reaffirmed her affidavit, “[s]he testified that if she previously had said that the President had sexually assaulted her, ’it was untrue.’” (Starr Report appendices, Vol. 1, p. 80 [not attached hereto]). The third document attached hereto is a portion of one of the appendices to the Starr Report, the Office of Independent Counsel’s own history of the Paula Jones litigation. Starr was seeking more evidence against the President, any way he could, and he immunized Broaddrick to protect her from any prosecution for perjury if she now changed her story. Voila! She did, disavowing her sworn affidavit and sworn deposition testimony. We don’t have a copy of the OIC’s April 8, 1998 interview with her, although it’s cited on page 58 of the history. As you see, the OIC states that Broaddrick told the OIC that her affidavit was false. This document is public. Finally, the fourth document is a report of the statement I made on the President’s behalf about Broaddrick’s NBC interview with Lisa Myers which ran shortly after the Senate impeachment trial concluded. I repeated that statement on a few occasions (mostly in 1999), but have never varied it. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can provide about this slimefest. Best, David *David E.
