Jones v. Clinton

Paula Corbin Jones kept quiet for more than two years about what she says happened on May 8, 1991. She was afraid, she said, that nobody would believe her story -- which was, essentially, that Bill Clinton, who was then governor of Arkansas, noticed her at a desk in the lobby of the Excelsior Hotel in Little Rock, where she was handing out name tags for a conference, had a state trooper bring her to a private room, and there made a crude request for oral sex, in the process giving her a look at what she would later call the "distinguishing characteristics" of his genital area.
