Date of uanscription l/26/98

On below date, investigators interviewed ASHLEY L. RAINES. Also present at the Law Office of Shea and Gardner, 1800 Massachusetts Avenue, N-W., Washington, D.C. 20036, were RAINES' attorneys, WENDY WHITE and HOWARD RUBIN. RAINES provided the following:

RAINES currently resides at _I_, hone number \m Her date of birth is - social security number U-b; place of birth, Little Rock, Arkansas. She is currently employed at the as the Director of Office of Policy Development Operations and Special Liaison to Management and Administration, Old Executive Office Building #145, office phone j_. RAINES graduated from Southern Methodist University in September, 1993.

RAINES advised that she met MONICA LEWINSKY in November, 1995. They have become close friends. During the Summer of 1996, LEWINSKY told RAINES that she had been engaged in a sexual relationship with the President. LEWINSKY advised RAINES that the President would call her at the White House office or home and ask her to come and see him. LEWINSKY would meet the President in the . They would go into the study off the Oval Office, and at times would kiss and engage in reciprocal oral sex.

At the time LEWINSKY first spoke with RAINES about this (Summer, 19961, the relationship with the President had.stopped, and LEWINSKY had changed jobs and worked at t8e Pentagon. LEWINSKY was unhappy and frustrated that she hadn't heard from the President in over one month.

LEWINSKY later told RAINES that the President had called LEWINSKY, and for a period of time telephone calls were the extent of their relationship. However, in early 1997, LEWINSKY again went to see the President at the Oval Office. LEWINSKY stated from early 1997 through about late December 1997, her relationship with the President resumed. This included, on occasion, reciprocal oral sex. LEWINSKY told RAINES that the President's secretary, , would "clear" her through, and that her visits in 1997 were infrequent.

RAINES advised that LEWINSKY showed her gifts that came from the President. These included: a hat pin approximately eight inches long, an antique looking brooch the size of a half dollar, special edition copy of "Leaves of Grass" by WALT WHITMAN, items from Martha's Vineyard with "Black Dog" logo, including a ball cap, and a short, baggy summer dress, and an autographed photo of the two of them wishing LEWINSKY "Happy Birthday." RAINES believed that LEWINSKY had given him two neckties, described as nice dress ties-that RAINES believed she saw the President wear on one occasion. LBWINSKY also told RAINES that LEWINSKY gave him a couple of books.

RAINES advised that LEWINSKY told her she had been subpoenaed for a deposition by ' attorneys. LEWINSKY was concerned with what to say. LEWINSKY felt she had done nothing illegal, but if she denied having had sex with the President, would this be perjury. LEWINSKY advised RAINES that she had contacted and JORDAN had referred a lawyer to LEWINSKY. RAINES was never told of or shown the affidavit LEWINSKY and her attorney provided to JONES‘ attorneys. At that time, LEWINSKY told RAINES she had not spoken to the President about the affidavit.

Sometime around the middle of 1997, LEWINSKY told RAINES that she wanted to leave D.C. LEWINSKY asked the President for help. VERNON JORDAN put her in contact with Revlon and Bersa &. Marcella (phonetic) in as well as a couple of other firms. RAINES didn't know how JORDAN got involved in this job hunt. P Rained advised that her last contact with LEWINSKY was a phone call on Tuesday, January 20, 1998. LEWINSKY asked RAINES to speak to her lawyer BILL GINSBERG. GINSBERG asked RAINES to refer all of her calls concerning LEWINSKY to his law firm. GINSBERG also stated "be careful." RAINES didn't understand what GINSBERG was referring to.

RAINES was aware of LEWINSKY's friendship with . LEWINSKY told RAINES she had confided in TRIPP concerning her relationship with the President. RAINES also believed LEWINSKY had also shared that information with LEWINSKY's mother and an aunt. OK-302a (Rev. 8-19-94)

OFFICE OF THE INDEPENDENT COLVSEL

Da:: IF transcnpr:on 2/2/98

WILLIAM BLAINE RICHARDSON, United Szates Ambassador to the United Nations, arranged through his attorney, JUSTIN SIMON, to be interviewed at the UN suite located at THE WATERGATE HOTEL, 2650 Virginia Ave. NW, Washington D.C. Present during the interview were SIMON, ELAINE METLIN an associate of Mr.SIMON at the law firm DICKSTEIN SHAPIRO MORIN & OSHINSKY, 2101 L Street NW, Washington D.C. and ANDREW ATHY, RICHARDSON's personal attorney and friend, 2540 Massachuettes Ave. &W, Washington D. C. All persons present were advised of the purpose of the interview and the official and personal identity of Investigator BASTIN and Associate Independent Counsel PATRICK O'BRIEN. RICHARDSON thereafter provided the following information.

RICHARDSON remembers that probably a few days before he received the resume of MONICA LEWINSKY at his New York office, he had a casual conversation with JOHN PODESTA at the WHITE HOUSE. PODESTA mentioned to him that PODESTA would like for him to interview a person who is moving to New York and is a friend of BETTY CURRIE, the presidents secretary, about a job with the UNITED NATIONS in New York. PODESTA closed the subject matter by saying he was unaware of the person's name, however he would send the resume to his UNITED NATIONS office in New York.

RICHARDSON explained that his usual weekly routine is to travel from New York to Washington D. C. on Tuesday morning in time for a meeting at the WHITE HOUSE in the afternoon. He will overnight at his suite in THE WATERGATE HOTEL on Tuesday night and attend another meeting at the WHITE HOUSE & Wednesday morning and then fly back to New York in the afternoon. He then returns to Washington D. C. on Friday for a Friday afternoon meeting at the WHITE HOUSE. On most of these occasions he sees and talks with JOHN PODESTA.

RICHARDSON recalls when he returned to his New York office his Administrative Assistant, ISABELE WATKINS handed him a resume of MONICA LEWINSKY and told him that this is the resume that JOHN PODESTA and BETTY CURRIE had discussed at the WHITE HOUSE. The resume was faxed to his office from the WHITE HOUSE on or about the same day he arrived in New York. There was then a discussion about whether or not and when to interview LEWINSKY. RICHARDSON asked WATKINS to set up the interview or "put it on

the schedule". RICHARDSON recalls that a second discussion may have occurred between himself and JOHN PODESTA. If this discussion took place it was probably on Air Force One on a Latin American trip. RICHARDSON has a vague recollection of a very short discussion wherein PODESTA may have asked if the resume had been received. RICHARDSON said his best recollection is that LEWINSKY had not been interviewed at that time.

RICHARDSON stated that it is not unusual for people to recommend others to him for possible jobs within the UN and he always tries very hard to “extend the courtesy of seeing" each person referred to him.

The interview‘of LEWINSKY was put on the schedule for an interview in Washington D. C. at THE WATERGATE HOTEL on October 31, 1997 for 7:30 am. RICHARDSON recalls being in Washington on Thursday evening before the interview and recalls the following morning MONA SUTPHEN and REBECCA COOPER were at his suite as well as his usual security guards. SUTPHEN went to the hotel lobby to meet LEWINSKY and escort her to the suite.

RICHARDSON met briefly with LEWINSKY and turned the interview over to COOPER. He recalls that he was in and out of the sitting area during the interview. The interview centered around a political appointment in the area of public affairs. RICHARDSON does not recall any discussion of salary but it was to be somewhat consistent with the salary of GENA%REIGO who was leaving the position being considered. RICHARDSON remembers LEWINSKY being poised and effervescent with a good background consisting of work at the WHITE HOUSE and the Pentagon and specifically remembers that she was to take a trip with Secretary of Defense COHEN sometime in the future. The interview was concluded after about 25 minutes and no job being offered.

RICHARDSON recalls a conversation with COOPER in route to Congress after the interview, wherein she indicated that she liked LEWINSKY and considered her a good prospect. Sometime later RICHARDSON had a similar conversation with SUTPHEN and an almost identical response. RICHARDSON indicated to both that he wanted to think about it for awhile. Approximately 7-10 days later he decided to offer her the job told SUTPHEN to call 3397

29D-LR-35353

Cnntinuarwn of OIC-302 of William Blaine Richardson .~n J-/28/98 ,pqe 3 LEWINSKY and offer her the job. SUTPHEN reported back to RICHARDSON that LEWINSKY said she was appreciative but would like some time to think about the job primarily because she was also interested in a job in the private sector.

RICHARDSON confirmed that no other candidates were interviewed for this position.

RICHARDSON recalls that at about this time the IRAQI crisis erupted and he didn't think about LEWINSKY's application for possibly 2 weeks. RICHARDSON at some point remembered LEWINSKY and asked SUTPHEN to contact LEWINSKY and find out if she will take the job or not. SUTPHEN reported back after talking to LEWINSKY that she was not interested in the job because she wanted to pursue a job in the private sector, however she did want to thank RICHARDSON for his assistance.

RICHARDSON believes there was about 2 weeks between the interview and the time when SUTPHEN made the job offer to LEWINSKY. RICHARDSON said he recalls a conversation with BETTY CURRIE which occurred during a chance encounter in the west wing of the WHITE HOUSE sometime probably before SUTPHEN offered the job to LEWINSKY. RICHARDSON knows CURRIE well and they hugged during their greeting and RICHARDSON recalls saying to her 'I interviewed this woman you sent, she's very good". It was a short conversation and she did not respond other than an acknowledgment of his comment. z

RICHARDSON stated that he has not talked to anyone else at the WHITE HOUSE about LEWINSKY and this specifically includes President CLINTON.

RICHARDSON said he does not keep his own calendar and that he does not create notes or files with regard to meetings and especially meeting with potential hires.

On the day of the publicity of the information concerning President CLINTON and LEWINSKY, COOPER called RICHARDSON at 6:30 am and advised him to read the newspaper about LEWINSKY. She also indicated the article said that CLINTON officials met with LEWINSKY for breakfast at the WATERGATE HOTEL 3398

which RIGHARDSON said was completely false.

RICHARDSON remembers that probably on the next occasion that he saw PODESTA following the newspaper accounts, PODESTA said to him that he (PODESTA) was sorry he got him into this.

RICHARDSON stated that no one has tried to shape or urge him to change his recollection of these events.

RICHARDSON said that on November 15, 1997 he had a chance encounter with LEWINSKY in New York at the 21 CLUB where his wife was taking him out for a birthday dinner. As he and his wife entered the club, someone spoke to him from across the room. He approached the person and after the person said to him, "I'm MONICA LEWINSKY" he then realized that she was the person who had applied for a job with the UN. She was with an older man and woman who she introduced. There was no discussion about the job or the interview and no mention about JORDAN or anyone else. This was the last time he saw LEWINSKY.

RICHARDSON is described as follows from observation and interview.

I 3I she wou r d be contacting - either she or YOU would be is; A Yeah. 1. I belleve what it is, IS that I reoerved [ 9 1contachng Ken Bacon?- i BIthIs. She wrote this letter November 3rd. I may have ohen A No. What I did was I told Mona Sutphen, I think. t IOII~a week later or 10 da s later. I think I had already to9 d i : y i about 10 days afterwards, after I had taken in Rebecca i 111Mona. Mona offer her t K e job. And Mona -- and so I wnte [ 1: 1Coopefs very strong recommendation that we hire Lewinsky. I [ 171 this note, “Mona - What does this mean?” [I 31 decided some 10 da s later. I think, or a week later - it (131 Q And is that because in your mind, if you knew that [ 1I 1was not Immediate; ty.hrs was not on my radar screen - that we t 14lshe had alread been offered the job, his letter seems - [ 151 should offer her the position. Cl51 ; beah. And I had Mona Sutphen call Monica to talk to her Cl61 - rather vague in - i:t;and offer her the position. And I believe Mona did. I think I171 ; Sort of innocuous. i 1I, j the records would show that. 1181 - terms of whether she was taking the job or not? I191 Q Now let me o to the next exhibit. WBR-8. A Yeah what does this mean. Then Mona I uess, [?Ol (Exhibit &R-8 was marked ~:~~writes. ‘She wrote this note before we spoke last week.” 30. 1211 for identification.) r211”Just a thank you.” 1221 BY MR.

[ 24 1 have spoken to her the week before she wrote the letter. So. I251 Q Now, tell me, sir, if you recognize what WBR-8 is? [251 0 Okay. Now, when it says, “She wrote this note

Page 93 Page 96 I11 A Yeah. This is, this is the thank-you letter she [I 1before we spoke last week”, what is your understanding of who 1.21 sent me. [ 2 1Mona - the “we spoke” is a reference to? Q By that, do you mean that this is a thank-you I31 A I think it refers to her, Mona and Lewinsky. I:iletter that you would have received from Ms. Lewinsky. I41 Q About the iob offer? [ 51 thanking you for meeting with her last Friday morning. which i5i A Yeah. * [6]would be October 31St. amed? Q So. and tell me if this is inaccurate then. The A Yeah but I could have seen this November 10th. I 176;basis for your being somewhat confused about the letter is il i mean this is November 3rd. I don’t know. Was it mailed or 1a 1 the fact that ou knew, at whatever time that you were [ slfaxed? It looks like it was mailed. So, I may have seen I 91looking at it. r hat a tab Offer had been extended - 1~o]this. you know, two weeks later, 10 days later. [101 ILlI Is this a fax, do we know? - Aa Yeah..- and In light of the fact that ou were waiting 1121 Q I’m not sure. I mean, the copy that I have is like I :: ito team whether she was accepting a job o tryer this letter [13lyOum [ 13ldidn’t really address the issue and was sort of confusing, in I141 A It looks like correspondence. f 141 terms of does tt mean she’s taking the job or not? Q Well, I think that number at the bottom might be a 1151 A That’s right. I :z; number either that you put on it or we put on it based on Q And then the reference or I should say the note to [ 17 lproduction from a subpoena. So, I don’t know that that is ;:76iyou from Mona is basically explaining why the letter is kind [ 1s1 something you would normally do. rlelof strange? [191 A Okay. I191 _ A Yeah. 0 And just for the record, let me indicate that what Q Namely, she is saying this is a letter she wrote i:iithis letter says is, it’s dated November 3rd. It says ‘It I :f i before we namely Mona and MO&a, spoke about the job offer f221was a pleasure meeting with you last Friday -m&g.

Federal investigators are now in possession of intimate taped conversations of a former White House intern, age 23, discussing details of her alleged sexual relationship with President Clinton, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

The tapes were made by a federal employee who has been granted immunity. MORE

According to sources in and out of government, Whitewater independent counsel Kenneth Starr became involved in the situation when he received intelligence that senior administration officials may have offered federal jobs to a young woman in an effort to prevent stories from going public -- stories involving sexual episodes that allegedly occurred in a room off the Oval Office.

“Starr is not on the bimbo beat,” one source close to the situation told the DRUDGE REPORT late Tuesday. “He’s looking at a potential for obstruction of justice charges.”

Earkerr?Ms. Lewlnsky provided a written statement in the lawsuit denying she ever had a sexual ralationsnrp with Clinton while an intern at the White House, Ginsburg said. “At this time, she stands by her declaration,” the lawyer said. The limes and ABC News reported that Starr was investigating whether Clinton deployed his friend and trusted adviser, Vernon Jordan, a Washington attorney. to discuss with Lewlnsky her testimony. The two reported that Starr’s of&e had received a tip from a former associate of Lewinsky, Linda Tripp, that prompted the investigation. The Washington Post and ABC reported that Tripp provided Starr with audiotapes that she recorded of conversations she had with Lewinsky in which the former intern recounted details of a 1@l&year affair she said she had with Clinton. Ms. Lewinsky started working at the White House in December 1996. Both newspapers and ABC said that, according to sources, Ms. Lewinsky said in one of the taped oonversations that Clinton and Jordan had asked her to deny to Ms. Jones’ lawyers that she had had a telatlonship with the president. After workin as an intern at the white House, Ms. Lewinsky worked in the public affairs department at the Pen% gon along with Trtpp- She laft the job, but it had nothing to do with the sexual harassment case, Ginsburg said. Ms. Lewinsky remains in Washington, her lawyer said. 82%DC-00000011

Background: Ambassador Richardson, who lives full-time in New York as the U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations, regularly stays at the Watergate Hotel when in D.C. for meetings at the White House or on the Hill. He often has meetings at the hotel. His Chief of Staff, Rebecca Cooper, is based in D.C.

Q: Did A m ba ssa d or R’tc h ar d son offer Monica Lewinsky a job at USUN?

A: Last night Ambassador Richardson’s Spokesman said:

Monica Lewinsky was offered a junior public affairs position at the U.S. Mission to the United Nations after being interviewed by Ambassador Richardson and his Chief of Staff in October 1997. The decision to hire Ms. Lewinsky was based on her qualifications, initiative. and reputation as a h. ,,rf worker. The position she was offered was consistent \\-ith her background and expertence at the Department of Defense and the White House. and not based on any other factors. She subsequently informed the Mission that, despite her initial interest in employment at the Mission, she wished to pursue employment in the private sector. There was no pressure by any individual to hire her and nothing improper occurred. The Ambassador routinely meets with qualified candidates for employment at the U.S. Mission.

The Ambassador and his staff only learned of allegations and leaks about this individual this morning through the news media.

: GOVERNMENT EXHIBIT I&!#-7 2 November 1997 f Dear Betty:

I hope you had an enjoyable weekend. I thought I’d drop you a note since it’s so difficult for both of us to talk at work!

I became a bit nervous this weekend when I realized that Amb. Richardson said his staff would be in touch with me this we&. As you know, the UN is supposed to be my back up but because VJ has been out of town, this is my only option right now. What should I say to Richardson’s people this week when they call? I had mentioned to Richardson that working there was one of the things I was looking at. It probably sounds stupid, but I have absolutely no idea how to tell them, “I’m not sure yet”, in a business-like manner. If you feel it’s appropriate, maybe you could ask “the big guy” what he wants me to do. Ahhhhh...anxiety!!!!!

Also, I don’t think I told you that in my conversation last Thursday night wtth him that he said he would ask you to set up a meeting between VJ and myself, once VJ got back. I assume he’ll mention this to you at some point - hopefully sooner rather than later!

I am enclosing a copy for VJ of the list of advertising/PR finns that I included in “the big guy’s” packet. My hopes are that one of the names will jump out as a place where he o/J) might have a contact.

I mentioned to him that Id like to drop by on Sat. to give you your birthday present and to see him for a bit. He seemed somewhat receptive and said he’d check it out this week. Of course, he’ll forget because in the whole scheme of things it’s not that important and I will, of course, probably have to bug you towards the end of the week with this (something to look forward to I’m sure)!!!!!

I hope to hear from you soon with some guidance. I am mailing my “thank-you-for-meeting-with- me-letter” to Richardson today. I was pleased the UN interview went well, but I’m afraid it will be like being at the Pentagon in NY...YUCK! PLEASE let me know what to do soon!!!!

1,000 thank you’s.

Hugs n’ kisses,

OK. I have some bad news. I am off the next trip so i won’t be coming to Tokyo. I am probably sorrier than you are. the truth is it would have been so difficult to spend time together and it probably would have benn more frustrating than anything.

The job thing on Friday went much better than expected. It was nice; the big creep called thursday night and gave me a pep talk because i was so afraid I’d sound like an idiot. Richardson is a great guy and i met two women who work for him...also very cool. Yesterday, Richardson called me at work and told me they were going to offer me a position..they didn’t know what yet, and they wanted to talk with me further. The problem is, I don’t really wnat to work there (issue wise or location wise) I’ve already had the experience of working in a yucky building. It was awful, actually, because i feel a liie trapped into taking it. HOPEFULLY, there will be some movement on the other tracks in NY too. I told mr. bacon I was planning to move and was in the process of looking...which is why i asked him if i could switch trips with tom. The biggest reason i need to do that was because the creep’s friend who is supposed to help me with the private sector possibilities has been out of town the last two weeks. I feel like I’ll lose momentum with them if i disappear for three weeks now (that’s including Thanksgiving). Oy vey!

I’m glad to hear you guys had such a nice weekend. Honestly Cat, it sounds like such a wonderful fantasy to me. To be with yourr husband - as part of a couple with other couples doing couple-y kinds of things and having fun.

My Australian boyfriend CALLED me on Friday to let me know his e-mail was down., He said it had become habit to e-mail me friday nights and he wanted to let me know he couldn’t send anything. I know...when’s the wedding????? Just kiddin’. i miss you tons and am so sad I won’t see you, but maybe we’ll work something out soon.

How are you? How’s the family?

It was sb great to see you last month. I am in the process of looking for a position in NY. I have been offered something at the UN, but I’m not reallly that interested in staying in the government. I have afaw leads in the private sector, so we’ll see what happens. I hoping to be up there by January (that may be too hopeful)!!!

I am off to the West coast for Thanksgiving and then on to Europe for a work trip. i hope to pop up to NY sometime mid-December, and I hope we can get together then.

Take care, and keep in touch. hugs n’ kisses Monica
