July 29, 1994 - Part 3
(13:35:40) Senator MACK. I was thinking about his wallet, for example, since it was mentioned earlier. Mr. COLOMBELL. Could I possibly Senator MACK. Were the personal belongings under continuous control so you know all of the information contained there when it was finally turned over to you? Mr. COLOMBELL. Could I possibly assist in responding, Senator? Senator MACK, Sure. Mr. COLOMBELL. The Park Police are colleagues of ours that we work with frequently, they didn't have 20/20 hindsight and we didn't have 20/20 hindsight and we're being subjected to quite a bit of criticism with regard to our investigation, But I think the nature of your questions, the Park Police concluded fairly quickly, I would say a matter of 20 to 24 hours, that it was clearly a suicide and bad substantial evidence I believe, to support that conclusion and once they had reached that conclusion. I think some of the ques 61 tions that you're asking now could best be directed to them, but the Senator MACK. Mr. Colombell, I'm of the impression Senator DODD. Can I answer the question? Senator MACK. It's my time. You use your time the way you want to use it. Senator KERRY. Your time has expired. The CHAIRMAN. Go ahead, Senator Mack. Your time is up, but I think you should be allowed to complete this question, so do so. Mr. MONROE. Excuse me, Senator Mack., as Mr. Colombell said, the determination by the Park Police as to the cause of Mr. Foster's death was one that was made fairly quickly by the Park Police. Senator MACK. What time was that? Mr. MONROE. I can't recall, Obviously, it wasn't as long as the 31/2-4 months we took. Senator MACK. The issues I'm raising happened In the first 24 hours. Mr. MONROE. I can't tell you an exact time when that determina- tion was made. can say during our interviews that the Park Police insisted that the investigation be conducted as a homicide investigation as you would do in any equivocal death, sir, as you know, but the period of time- the time that they made a decision, I, don't know the exact time, but it wasn't too far past the time of death. And therefore, some of the evidence could very well have been returned to its owner which we probably wouldn't have done based on the hindsight that' we have right now, Senator. The CHAIRMAN. Thank you, Senator Mack. I might say we will have the Park Police investigators here in the afternoon, so you'll be able to put those questions to them. Senator Kerry. Senator KERRY. Mr. Chairman, thank you very much. You know, I mentioned in my opening about bow I thought it was really important that we don't sort of fantasize and not exaggerate or create things that don't exist here. We just spent a lot of time about this magical pager. It is a fact, is it not, Mr. Monroe, that the pager was found by the first investigator to arrive at the body to be turned off; is that accurate? Mr. MONROE. That is correct. Senator KERRY. And a turned-off pager doesn't receive messages? Mr. MONROE. It does not. Senator KERRY. I have one of the White House pagers right in front of me here. This precise pager, when turned off, cancels all messages, does it not? Mr. MONROE. I'm not aware whether or not it canceled all prior messages. KERRY. It does, just like Senate pagers, when 'you turn if off, you start anew when you turn it back on. Fairly fundamental I think. But the most important ingredient is when en Vincent Poster's body was found, the pager was off; is that accurate? Mr. MONROE. That's correct. Senator KERRY. With respect to the mystery of this potential leak, there's no allegation, is there, at this point, that anybody Made a leak with respect to Judge Hale; is that correct? Mr. MONROE. There is no indication of that whatsoever. 62 Senator KERRY. No evidence whatsoever that there was ever leak; is that accurate? Mr. MONROE. That's correct. Senator KERRY. And the procedure of the FBI when a warrant is signed is that the opposing attorney does not learn of the existence of a warrant until it is served?

July 29, 1994 - Part 3
(13:45:35) The CHAIRMAN. Thank you. Senator KERRY. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The CHAIRMAN. Senator Faircloth is next in the order, Senator FAIRCLOTH. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The first question is to Special A gent Monroe. I notice there's &en a number of questions that you have not been able to answer. Do you know or could you tell me why Robert Fiske isn't here today to talk about the Fiske Report himself? Mr. MONROE. Let me respond to the first comment as to the questions I could not answer. I am able to answer, Senator with all due respect, those questions that pertain to bow did Mr. Foster 'die, what was the cause of his death, and did Whitewater play any role, sir. So with all due respect, I'm able to answer those questions to the best of my ability. The second question you asked as to Mr. Fiske not being here, and I do not know, but my sense is that was situation or an issue that Mr. Fiske dealt with with the Chairman as to his appearance. I would say that his not being here, with 'ill due respect also, should not be any indication of the leadership that he has exerted on this particular aspect of the Whitewater issue, Senator. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Thank you, Mr, Monroe, and I have several questions so the briefer you would be, the more I will be able to get to. Fiske claims because of scandals collectively known as Whitewater were used, there's no evidence Whitewater played any role ,in the depression that led to the suicide. Were you made aware before his death Vincent Foster had prepared and filed 3 years of delinquent tax returns for the Clinton's Whitewater partnership? MONROE. I was not personally aware of that. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Well, be did file 3 years delinquent tax re- Mr. MONROE. Thank you, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Are you also aware Foster bad finished the work to place the Clintons' assets into a blind trust? 64 Mr, MONROE. Yes, I was aware of that, sir, but his responsibility there, to the best of my knowledge, was simply as an intermediary to get the President to sign a form, That was being handled by another party. Senator FAIRCLOTH. In 1992, the Whitewater issue surfaced in the Clinton Presidential campaign and the Clintons hired an attorney who, of course, cleared them of any wrong. Later Whitewater resurfaced in the so- called Lyons report and was thoroughly discredited. Are you aware of the Whitewater report and the fact that James Lyons was to meet with Vince Foster the day after he died? Could that have affected his state of mind? Mr. MONROE. I was aware of his scheduled meeting with Mr. Foster the day after his death. Whether or not that had any impact on his state of mind would be mere conjecture on my part, Senator. Senator FAIRCLOTH. At the end of last month, Robert Fiske said be would have his report in the Whitewater phase complete, shortened I believe he said, in 10 days. Then he said it would be delayed. We have just recently learned that Robert Fiske had not even subpoenaed the White House documents, How was he planning to. so shortly have his report when he hadn't even seen the papers in the White House? Mr. MONROE. Two parts of your question. Those documents had already been subpoenaed, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. When were they subpoenaed? Mr. MONROE. The exact date, I don't know. Senator FAIRCLOTH. I mean, this week or in March? Mr. MONROE. I'm not aware of when they were subpoenaed, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. According to what we've been able to find out he had not even subpoenaed them fairly recent, but-does he know when? Mr. MONROE. I don't know the exact date of the subpoena. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Does the man who's prompting you know when? Mr. MONROE. I'm sorry, no. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Does the man prompting you know better The CHAiRmAN. Senator Faircloth, if you will permit me to interrupt you for a moment. I don't want to knock you off the line of questioning, but there is a concern as to whether that line of dis cussion starts to move into the active phase of the investigation that Mr. Fiske may still have ongoing that he's asked us not to, cross into, and so I think, Mr. Monroe may, in fact, not be in a position to do that without us getting outside our scope as we've laid it out.

July 29, 1994 - Part 3
(13:50:37) I want to make certain that we're not, in effect, tampering with an ongoing part of the investigation by Mr. Fiske in this area:. We're going to get answers to those questions in due course, I want to be certain that we're not, in effect, crowding into area here, and I won't say that's your intention. I just want to b~, sure we ' re not, Mr. MONROE. I thank you, Mr. Chairman. I'm also trying to responsive as best I can. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Thank you. Turn the clock back on. 65 Senator FAIRCLOTH. Dr. Hirsch., what is your relationship with Robert Fiske? Dr. HIRSCH. I have no ongoing or previous relationship with Mr Fiske. I was asked to serve as a consultant to his investigation. never met him before, and I don't anticipate hearing from him in the future. re. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Have you ever visited Fort Marcy Park? Dr. HIRSCH. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Were you present at the Foster autopsy? Dr. HIRSCH. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Have you actually examined the gun that was identified as the suicide weapon? Dr. HIRSCH. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Have you actually examined any other physical evidence? Dr. HIRSCH. Let me go back to the question-I haven't had the kind physical evidence in my hand. I've seen photographs of it and I've seen the results of test firings of the gun to produce certain gunpowder patterns, particularly the escape of gunpowder in the ap of the front of the cylinder and the breach end of the barrel. So I've had direct access to that type of evidence. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Have you interviewed anyone involved in the case other than Dr. Beyer? Dr. HIRSCH. I didn't personally interview Dr. Beyer. That was done by the forensic pathologist, Dr. Luke, who was part of our panel. I believe you asked me something about photographic evidence? Senator FAIRCLOTH. No, I didn't ask about photographic Dr. HIRSCH. I'm sorry, Senator FAIRCLOTH. Who have you interviewed involved in the case? Dr. HIRSCH. Who at the Senator FAIRCLOTH. You did not interview Dr. Beyer. Who did you interview? Dr. HIRSCH. I have spoken with the agents who are investigating and with agents who did work in the laboratory, but I didn't personally interview the Park Police or the medical personnel. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Dr. Hirsch, did Robert Fiske or any of his representatives talk to you about your conclusions prior to the public release of your report? Dr. HIRSCH. Of course, Senator FAIRCLOTH. So Robert Fiske and his representatives talked with you about your conclusions prior to the public release Of your report? Dr. HIRSCH. Senator, we attended a meeting at the office of the Independent Counsel at which time I saw all of the available evi dence, the microscopic slides, the photographic documentation. Senator FAIRCLOTH. I understand that, but my question Dr. HIRSCH. Mr. Fiske was present at that meeting, And the pa thologist explained our interpretation of the evidence that we saw and the findings. So Mr. Fiske was directly made aware of that. The pathologist, then in an Adelphi fashion, if you will, by circulating drafts of our report, all saw it, all participated in its 66 authorship, and I'm certain that Mr. Fiske saw that before it was published in this report. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Did you talk with Robert Fiske about your conclusions? Did you talk to him about it? Dr. HIRSCH. I was a participant in the meeting, and I expressed my opinions to Robert Fiske about the interpretation of the medical findings. Senator FAIRCLOTH. You discussed this with him and he knew what was coming out? Dr. HIRSCH. Yes, sir. He knew how I felt about this evidence an( how we all did. Senator FAIRCLOTH. One more question. Dr. Hirsch, the biog- raphies of the pathologists fill up a large portion of the Fiske Re port on the death of Vince Foster, The Fiske Report puts a good bit of stock in a person called a confidential witness. Did you eve talk to the confidential witness? Dr. HIRSCH. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Thank you. The CHAIRmAN. Thank you. Senator Moseley-Braun. Senator MOSELEY-BRAUN. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just a couple of specific questions for Mr. Monroe or whoever is inclined to answer. The FBI was contacted on the 21st by the Park Police and asked to come into the case; is that correct? Mr. MONROE. That's correct, to come in to participate, I believe, for the search of Vincent Foster's office, Senator MOSELEY-BRAUN. Was this request routine in cases such as this? Mr. MONROE. Yes, it was, Senator. Please bear in mind the legislation there is the Presidential and Presidential staff assassination statute and not to take your valuable time, based on the preliminary investigation in which we found no criminal activity, preliminary, the lead agency based on agreement with the Park Police and what we do is render whatever assistance they might request.
