I spoke by phone with Mr. Skolnick on August 18, 1995. Note that
in what follows I neither necessarily agree nor disagree with
either all or parts of statements made by Mr. Skolnick. Persons
mentioned are invited to send rebuttals, of reasonable length,
for probable distribution.

CONSPIRACY NATION:
All right, let me read to you this purported e-mail message that
was forwarded to me. I don't know absolutely that this is by
Orlin Grabbe, but it's purported to be, and I believe it is:
About the RTC [Resolution Trust Corporation], I don't know. I
have too many good leads to follow to worry about that part
of it. It is possible that someone supplied Skolnick with
disinformation, for which the basic structure of the story
was true but the names were changed to create a diversion and
confusion.
SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
What is he talking about?
CONSPIRACY NATION:
I think he's talking about that RTC transfer of the contingency
fund.
SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
Well that's... His contention that it's mis-information is
ridiculous! Why? I think I already told you.
Joseph Andreuccetti [is] a former client of John E. Gierum. And
Andreuccetti has a major claim against the $58.4 million RTC
contingency fund in Chicago. In the presence of his former
client, Andreuccetti (and myself), John E. Gierum, in January
'94, confessed that the Clinton White House was trying to frame
him on the transfer {6}. And that he had previously also admitted
to me that he's a close crony of the Rodham family from Park
Ridge [Illinois], where he has his office. He grew up with
Hillary's brother. He went to law school with him.
It couldn't be dis-information. We spoke directly to the source
that was *in* *charge* of the 50-some-odd million dollar
contingency fund. Therefore, I don't know what Mr. Grabbe is
talking about, that he thinks I changed the names or am a victim
of dis-information. I dealt directly with the one that was in
charge of it!
CONSPIRACY NATION:
Yeah. And as a matter of fact, Sarah McClendon confirms a lot of
what you've been sayin'. In a recent issue of *Relevance*, which
is a newsletter, the editor says that he has talked with Sarah
McClendon, and she -- I don't have the exact quote at hand -- but
she says, roughly, "...bank fraud, to the tune of $46-60 million
dollars, in Arkansas." {7}. Which supports what you've been
sayin' all along.
SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
Right. And what about the thing, that's in the court record, not
disputed, by the top [...tape runs out...]
As you know, September 20th, '94, I got over an hour-and-a-half
interview, in the presence of Andreuccetti, with the spokesperson
for the acting chief of the Criminal Investigation Division of
IRS, Lynette Redmer. And she *volunteered* about the $50 million
and the transfer of the money and the RTC and all that. And she
brought up things, from her own knowledge, that involved
Whitewater. She's the one that brought it up, okay? (She's a top
IRS official.)
And her interview with me (or confession -- whatever you want to
call it) is a matter of court record ever since! It's never been
disputed by her or by the IRS or by anybody {8}.
And because of that confession of an IRS official, as you know, I
filed a petition, in the federal court, that a top Justice
Department official flew into Chicago and threatened me outside
the door of the courtroom! That's still pending too.
And the magistrate, judge, that was inside [the courtroom], that
just *heard*, relating to this, is a witness. Because her deputy
clerk says that "We hear everything that's happening outside.
Move away from the door."
I was threatened by a Justice Department official, right outside
the door, about the very thing that you're asking me about.
CONSPIRACY NATION:
Yeah, okay. And Grabbe purportedly goes on to add that he's
"focusing on a single wire transfer, which is going to blow this
whole thing wide open. And that is the $286,000 from Vince's
sister to her sister-in-law." Which I think he wrote about in
part 18.
SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
Yeah, I read it.
We know a related detail. According to Grabbe's story and other
routine sources, Sheila Foster Anthony, the sister of the late
White House deputy counsel Vincent Foster, Jr., she heads up the
legislative affairs department of the Justice Department, that
handles the process of putting up nominees for U.S. judges, U.S.
attorneys, and U.S. marshalls.
And the magistrate over here in Chicago, outside whose door a
Justice Department official threatened me earlier this year, is
now a pending appointment to be promoted as a U.S. district
judge, which is a lifetime appointment. And her appointment has
been held up. And among the reasons is my complaint about that
she allowed me to be threatened (outside her door) about the 50
million dollars by a Justice Department official that, by what he
said, was threatening to have me jailed! To silence me!
So there's a connection, right between the magistrate, Joan
Lefkow, whose appointment to the district court bench has been
held up.
We sent copies of all this to the chairman of the Senate
Judiciary Committee, Orrin Hatch. And he wrote me back that it's
being considered.
And so the ratification of her appointment is being held up by
the Senate Judiciary Committee. And the direct connection there:
the one that is in the nominating/selection process of federal
district judges is Foster's sister, the very one that you are
mentioning here, Sheila Foster Anthony, who, according to Grabbe,
transferred to Foster's widow, Lisa, $286,000. And Grabbe's
implying that there was something secret about it, or that it
might have been illicit money-laundering funds.

{6} The RTC contingency fund, approximately $58.4 million, was
allegedly secretly and illegally transferred to Arkansas to be
used to cover up the alleged embezzlement of a bank down there.
{7} "Now in her eighties, McClendon, the grand dame of the
Washington press corps told your editor in mid-May that there
were sixteen sealed indictments sitting in the Arkansas District
Court, three of which indict Hillary Rodham Clinton with bank
fraud to the tune of $47-60 million, obstruction of justice, and
possibly perjury." *Relevance* newsletter, June/July 1995. Call

{8} Excerpts from "Second Amended Verified Complaint", case No.
92 C 7048, United States District Court, Northern District of
Illinois, Eastern Division:
2. That on September 20, 1994, Sherman H. Skolnick and
Andreuccetti went to the 14th floor of the building at 230
South Dearborn Street, Chicago, Illinois, Internal Revenue
Service, Criminal Investigation Division. Skolnick said he is
a journalist and wishes to speak with the Chief or acting
Chief of C.I.D.
2A. A woman came to a door, said she speaks for the Chief,
later identifying herself as Lynette Redmer, and ushered
Skolnick and Andreuccetti to a conference room.
[...]
18. She [Redmer] used words and statements to show she had
inside knowledge of Joe's [Andreuccetti's] problem. She
referred to a 54 or more million dollar fund parked by
Resolution Trust Corporation with Household International,
part of the details of Joe's [Andreuccetti's] pieces of
litigation. Turning to Joe, she said, "Well your claim
against the fund is mostly 32 million dollar punitive damage
claim from your DuPage matter," which Joe [Andreuccetti]
disputes. She said, "The transfer (secretly) of 50 million to
Little Rock, that was Whitewater, right?" Skolnick confirmed
that is correct. "They only needed 47 (million) down there,
what happened to the 3 million difference?" Confirming that
she knew from inside details that the President and First
Lady are accused by some in R.T.C. of being implicated in the
embezzlement of 47 million dollars missing from Madison
Guaranty Savings & Loan of Little Rock. "Do you know exactly
where in a secret trust they have the 50 million in Little
Rock?" she said to Skolnick, who said "The 3 million
difference is for so-called 'transportation' expense, that
is, street tax." She was aware that John E. Gierum was
implicated in said transfer and was a close crony of First
Lady Hillary.
