Peter Paul Wants Hillary to Testify
Former Hollywood mogul Peter Paul, whose allegations spurred a four-year FBI probe into an August 2000 fund-raiser for New York Sen. Hillary Clinton that resulted in the indictment of her then-finance chairman, David Rosen, said Monday that he intends to call Mrs. Clinton to testify in a related civil lawsuit he filed.
"It's critical to get Hillary under oath," Paul told Fox News Radio host Tony Snow, "because it appears that the government won't call her as a witness at David Rosen's trial."

In a trial that begins today, Rosen faces three counts of lying to federal regulators about the amount Paul spent on expenses for the event.
Paul called Sen. Clinton's testimony "a critical component" in the process of uncovering the truth behind the Aug. 12, 2000 gala, as well as two other fund-raisers he produced for the former first lady.
He said his lawsuit, now in the discovery phase, will cover a broad range of allegations, explaining, "There's a variety of crimes involved that the American public can relate to beyond election law."
