Prosecution questions Panetta and seeks Secret Service aid
Whitewater prosecutors press the Secret Service for witnesses as they probe whether President Clinton had sex with Monica Lewinsky. Officials say Starr's office and Treasury officials weighed testimony from agents, risking breach of the agents' silence. Agents have testified before on related matters involving documents after Vincent Foster's death. Lewinsky's lawyer said negotiations for immunity are ongoing with regular contact. Ginsburg noted patience in the process and a ruling expected soon. Investigators also traveled to Portland to collect evidence from a former instructor tied to Lewinsky's past affair disclosures.
