Prosecutors will let Susan McDougal, a former Whitewater business partner of the Clintons, testify to a grand jury via videotape from her prison cell. The Whitewater prosecutors told the Associated Press that their offer is "quite extraordinary and to our knowledge without precedent." McDougal has been jailed for the past 17 months on civil contempt charges and still faces a two-year prison term for fraud. She claims independent counsel Kenneth Starr wants her to incriminate the president through lies; Starr says not true.
