Three women who earlier confirmed
unwanted sexual encounters with Bill Clinton over the last 30 years
are now refusing to discuss the matter further and at least one
may have been threatened in an effort to keep her quiet.
"I'm sorry I ever
talked to you about this. Please don't call again," a teary
Carolyn Moffet told Capitol Hill Blue Tuesday night. An acquaintance
said the former Miss Moffet had been threatened by an anonymous
caller earlier in the day.
Moffet, a former Little
Rock legal secretary who said Clinton tried to force her to perform
oral sex on him after a political fundraiser in 1978, was the third
woman Tuesday to back away from further public discussion of their
experiences with Clinton.
In London, Eileen Wellstone,
who said Clinton sexually assaulted her while he was a student at
Oxford University 30 years ago, changed her phone number and hired
a barrister who warned a reporter to "cease and desist all
further efforts" to contact his client.
A third woman, Sandra
Allen James, who worked as a Democratic fundraiser in 1991 when
she said then-Presidential candidate Bill Clinton accosted her in
his hotel room and tried to force her into sex, hung up the phone
after saying she had received unwanted phone calls from other news
organizations.
Although editors at
Capitol Hill Blue have received a number of inquiries from
other news organizations involving earlier published interviews
with the three, the locations and phone numbers were not revealed
by anyone connected with the Internet publication. One news source,
however, said privately Tuesday that she had gotten Sandra James'
phone number from a source close to the White House.
The White House did
not return phone calls seeking comment on the report.
