Herman denies taking money for influence in Clinton era

Labor Secretary Alexis Herman rejects Justice Department allegations she used her official power for personal gain tied to Vanessa Weaver and Laurent Yene. The inquiry seeks potential independent counsel. Yene claims cash delivery and 10 percent fees from clients linked to a telecom license project. Clinton defended Herman as the inquiry began.

Accuser threatened to destroy Herman and Weaver

Laurent Yene, an African businessman who accused Labor Secretary Alexis Herman of corruption, sought 250000 dollars from Herman’s ally Vanessa Weaver in 1997, later lowering it to 125000. He alleges a scheme to channel 10 percent of consulting fees from a client seeking a satellite license, and claims he delivered cash to Weaver’s home.
