Whitewater trial witness accused of tax cheating and fabricating lies
Defense lawyers in the Whitewater trial questioned the credibility of key witness David Hale and claimed he lied to sell his story. Hale admitted wrongdoing but stated President Clinton and former partners James and Susan McDougal and Gov. Tucker were involved in illegal loans. The McDougals and Tucker face conspiracy charges over a $3 million loan scheme tied to a savings and loan and Hale’s SBA backed lending firm. Hale pleaded guilty to defrauding the SBA, received over two years, and agreed to testify for the government. He says Clinton attended meetings about money with Hale and denies pressuring him to approve an improper loan.
