"There have been 20 years of rumors and speculation about who was doing the leaking on the Starr commission, and just a week after American Oversight asked for this report to be unsealed, we may finally get an answer," said American Oversight Executive Director Austin Evers, "If Judge Kavanaugh was involved in improper leaking of confidential information, the Senate Judiciary Committee and the American people have a right to know before he is confirmed to a lifetime position on the Supreme Court."
Watch the Whitewater
Two grand juries had convened to investigate the Whitewater controversy, including issues related to Foster's death. Hillary Clinton testified before one of them in January 1996.
Now Senate Democrats are exploring whether Kavanaugh crossed a line in his private communications with outsiders and revealed grand-jury testimony related to Foster's suicide or other matters then under scrutiny in Starr's wide-ranging investigation of Bill and Hillary Clinton.
This week, they contacted an author who said Kavanaugh was offered as a confidential source by Starr's deputies, and they were part of a successful effort to convince a judge to order the release later this week of a sealed 1999 report into alleged grand-jury leaks by Starr's office.
