Whitewater Opening Arguments

A court in Little Rock has been hearing opening statements today in a case in which President Clinton is expected to testify. A special prosecutor is making a fraud case against the president's former business partners James and Susan McDougal and Arkansas Governor Jim Guy Tucker. NPR's Jon Greenberg reports from Little Rock that one prosecution witness says then-Governor Clinton pressured him to make a government-guaranteed loan to Mrs. McDougal. Mr. Clinton denies the allegation.
