Whitewater Hearings August 1, 1994 - Part 1
(11:55:46) Mr. ROELLE. No, sir. Senator SHELBY. Not at any time? Mr. ROELLE. No, sir. Senator SHELBY. Were you aware of this conversation you just heard related? Mr. ROELLE. No, sir. I had left the RTC at the end of December and reported back to the FDIC. Senator SHELBY. When you went over each of the nine criminal :referrals with Mrs. Hanson, who was the General Counsel at Treasury, did you go over them in detail? 26 Mr. ROELLE. I went over about a sentence on each one. I had been given an oral set of general statements about each of the criminal referrals. It was followed up by a fax that I got later, I believe the same day, with a one-sentence explanation of each of the criminal referrals. That is what I bad been read over the telephone, and I briefed Ms. Hanson just on the basis of what I had been read over the telephone. Senator SHELBY. Did you tell her this information was confidential and should not be shared, or was that understood? Mr. ROELLE. I didn't use those words. I used the same words I previously stated. I said that I do not believe it should be discussed with anyone, that it should be kept quiet, that this is not something-it is only for Mr. Altman and it is only an advisory to Mr. Altman. I did not admonish, in any way, or say, don't talk to any specific person. It was a general statement that these should be kept quiet. They shouldn't be discussed. Senator SHELBY. Thank you. My time is up. The CHAIRMAN. Thank you. Senator Faircloth. OPENING COMMENTS OF SENATOR LAUCH FAIRCLOTH Senator FAIRCLOTH. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Roelle, in September 1993, you were the Chief The CHAIRMAN. Senator Faircloth, we're not able to hear you, I don't know if that mike is working properly. Maybe you can just speak a little more loudly into it. Senator FAIRCLOTH. How's that? Mr. Roelle, in September 1993, you were the Chief Financial Officer Senator D'AMATO. YOU might use another mike. The CHAiRmAN. I'm not sure that one's working, Senator Faircloth. We'll get it checked in a minute. Senator FAIRcLOTH. Mr. Roelle-can you hear me now? The CHAIRMAN. Yes. Senator FAIRCLOTH. In September 1993, you were the Chief Financial Officer of the RTC. According to the testimonydou gave in your deposition, at that time you told Roger Altman an Jean Hanson about a criminal referral to the Justice Department that named the Clintons. A criminal referral is nonpublic information, isn't it? Mr. ROELLE. That's correct. Senator FAIRCLOTH. According to your testimony, you told Jean Hanson, and I quote: "We need to make sure these are kept confidential." You also testified, you said, "My advice would be not to tell anyone and that these should be kept confidential, that it was only for Mr. Altman's knowledge and was not for any action to be taken." So you believed that this was nonpublic information, and should be kept confidential. Mr. ROELLE. Yes, sir, Senator FAIRCLOTH. You testified in your deposition, that in September 1993, there had been no press inquiries about the criminal referrals that named the Clintons. 27 You also testified there was no indication that a press leak was imminent. Is that correct? Mr. ROELLE. I didn't discuss the imminence of a press leak. I did say, in - the course of that conversation that in all likelihood, the press would get hold of this and it would be leaked because that was the nature of the RTC. But I know of no leak. Senator FAIRCLOTH. You knew of no imminent-you said, or testified there was no indication that a press leak was imminent. Mr. ROELLE. That's correct. Senator FAIRCLOTH. In September 1993, the time that you testified that no press inquiry bad been made about the criminal referrals, and the time when you have testified that there was no indication that a press leak about them was imminent, there was a meeting where the RTC told this nonpublic information to White House officials. Others have testified that the reason they did this was because of an impending press leak. Does the RTC usually brief people named in criminal referrals if they think there's a chance that there may be a press leak? Is this normal procedure?
Whitewater Hearings August 1, 1994 - Part 1
(12:00:50) Mr. ROELLE. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Why did we do it this time? Mr. RoELLE. I have no idea sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. I'm still a little confused. There bad been no press inquiry about this criminal referral that named the Clintons. And there was no evidence of a press leak. By that standard, the RTC could tell anybody anything they want, so long as they say there is a possibility that there may be a press leak. Is that right? Mr. ROELLE. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Has there ever been another case where the RTC gave an i.e., heads-up, in criminal referrals because they thought there might be a press 'leak? Mr. ROELLE. No, sir, not that I'm aware of Senator FAIRCLOTH. This was an all-time first, to notify the Clintons? Mr. ROELLE. Pardon me? Senator FAIRcLOTH. This was an all-time first, to notify the White House? Mr. ROELLE. As far as I know, yes, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Mr. Ryan, have you heard a report prepared by Mississippi attorney Stanley Huggins, known as either the Huggins report or the Garish report? Mr. RYAN. I believe I've heard of that, yes. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Do you know whether or not the RTC or the OTS has that report? (12:02:20)(End of tape #10056)

(12:00:29)(Beginning of tape #10057) Others have testified that the reason they did this was because of an impending press leak. Does the RTC usually brief people named in criminal referrals if they think there's a chance that there may be a press leak? Is this normal procedure? (12:00:50) Mr. ROELLE. No, sir.

Senator FAIRCLOTH. Has anyone from the White House or one of the President's personal attorneys contacted you about the report? Mr. RYAN. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Has Robert Fiske contacted you about the report? Mr. RYAN, I don't know. We provided a great deal of information Mr. Fiske. I'm not sure whether that particular report was 28 among the information. I think it probably was, but I just don't know. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Could you provide the Committee and us with a copy of that report? Mr. RYAN. I think it goes beyond the scope and might compromise any particular action that the RTC might take. Senator FAIRCLOTH. A report prepared by a Memphis attorney would go beyond the scope of what the Senate is looking at? Mr. RYAN. I believe that report deals with the substantive matters that are under review by Mr. Fiske and by our office with respect to the possibility of bringing an actionable claim. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Have you seen the editorial from this morning's Wall Street Journal, entitled, "Who is Jack Ryan?"? Mr. RYAN. Yes, sir. I read it with a great deal of interest. I was curious myself. [Laughter.] Senator FAIRCLOTH. I thought it might be of interest to you. [Laughter.] Mr. Ryan, that editorial asks some good questions that I'd like to ask you now. Mr. RYAN. Sure. Senator FAIRCLOTH. First, April Briselow, an RTC attorney, said in a tape-recorded phone call to Jean Lewis, an RTC investigator who has been taken off the Madison Guaranty investigation, that you and Ms. Kulka would like to be able to say that Whitewater did not cause a loss to Madison. Ms. Lewis responded that the Whitewater account alone might show losses in excess of $100,000. 1 appreciate the remark you made in your opening statement. You essentially said that, ultimately, you should be judged by what you do, not by what you say. That's hard to argue with. But, specifically, did you ever say anything to anyone along the lines of you would like to be able to say that Whitewater did not cause a loss to Madison, that statement or anything close to it? Mr. RYAN, Senator, I don't recall ever having said anything like that. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Not even close to it? Never alluded to such a thing? Mr. RYAN. Not that I recall, Senator FAIRCLOTH, The editorial-do I have time for one more question? The CHAIRMAN. If it's a follow-up to this and it will be brief. I mean, the light's on, but I don't want to cut you off if you want to finish a point. I'm not going to do that to anybody.

Parents and professors in the audience.

Well, we will choose life. In so doing we will prevail over the enemies within man, and over the natural enemies of all mankind."
