Secret Service witness says Lewinsky and Clinton alone in Oval Office
Monica Lewinsky's mother returns for a second grand jury session as Hillary Clinton suggests the controversy will slowly fade. A retired Secret Service officer, Lewis C. Fox, testified that Lewinsky spent about 40 minutes alone with Clinton in the Oval Office, with security and staff nearby making a sexual encounter unlikely. White House officials disputed the propriety of an agent ushering a visitor into the Oval Office, and the Starr investigation expands to affidavits from other women tied to Clinton.
