> The Unreported Story
>
> When Bill Clinton stood outside the Old State House in
> Little Rock to announce his candidacy for President,
> Linda Ives was there. She positioned herself where she
> could easily be seen by all, and she held up a sign that
> read, "Clinton for President, Malak for Surgeon
> General." The media ignored her, but the Secret Service
> watched her closely.
>
> Linda cried when Clinton was elected. She had been
> battling the powers of state government for five years
> searching for accountability for Kevin's murder, and now
> one of her opponents was the President of the United
> States. If this was supposed to be intimidating, it
> wasn't - Linda Ives is the mother of a murdered child
> and nothing is more fearless.
>
> The unexpected benefit of Clinton becoming president was
> the international interest in Arkansas scandals that
> surround him, including the "train deaths." Linda had
> always been willing to talk with anyone who would
> listen. She didn't care if they were from the right or
> from the left or from Mars. Linda told the same story
> which had previously been embraced by the liberal
> Arkansas media, but that was before they had a
> home-grown president to take care of.
>
> One of the reporters who contacted Linda was Ambrose
> Evans-Pritchard. He was the Washington D.C. bureau chief
> for the London Sunday Telegraph. He listened to Linda's
> story and, as did many other reporters, he wrote about
> it. But Ambrose was different. He wasn't interested in
> reporting about a string of scandals. He wanted to know
> connections and common factors. He wanted to understand
> the big picture. So he worked, and studied, and
> researched. His reporting was so well founded, he became
> "the reporter most feared by the White House."
>
> Ambrose was not only interested in gathering
> information, he was generous about sharing information.
> When the FBI opened their own investigation of the
> "train deaths" and persuaded me to get involved, Ambrose
> and I communicated regularly. He is one of the few
> outsiders who has a complete understanding of Saline
> County corruption, and believe me, that is no simple
> accomplishment. His knowledge became so thorough, he was
> able to recognize useful information when he ran across
> it. He would pass it on to me which I would, of course,
> share with Linda and the FBI.
>
> I had the pleasure of having dinner with Ambrose in the
> D.C. Press Club one evening in the summer of 1994.
> Hobnobbing with the elite does not have much appeal to
> me, but I was impressed with the esteem most everyone
> who brushed by our table extended to Ambrose. Ambrose
> was not one of the Clinton-apologists, but he was
> obviously respected by them.
>
> Ambrose is back in Europe, but he left us with a book he
> finished this summer. The name of it is "The Secret Life
> of Bill Clinton: The Unreported Stories." It is divided
> into three sections: The Oklahoma Bombing, Vince Foster,
> and Come to Arkansas. Chapter 17, called Death Squad, is
> the Saline County story, and it is poignant. I have no
> personal knowledge of any other part of his book, but I
> do know the Saline County story, and Linda Ives and I
> vouch for the veracity of every word Ambrose wrote about
> us. There is nothing more important to Linda and me than
> truth and accuracy. They are our only weapons - they are
> powerful and we guard them fiercely.
>
> I was, however, concerned about some of the information
> Ambrose reported about Sharline Wilson. True, she was my
> task force's best and most reliable informant. True, I
> never caught her in a lie. True, everything she told me
> panned out. Yet, as I read her confessions to Ambrose
> about picking up drugs from the Mena Airport, I felt
> uneasy. I knew nothing that could corroborate this, and
> I found myself wishing Ambrose had not included it in
> his book. Sharline had certainly been a drug-runner, but
> unloading planes at Mena seemed far-fetched.
>
> Then, I began to think back to when I first got to know
> Sharline. One of my task force officers developed her as
> an informant against the dirty sheriff's department in
> Hot Spring County. I remember she came up with some
> pretty incredible accusations against the sheriff and
> some of his deputies, but time proved her absolutely
> correct. Then I remembered the first time she mentioned
> Dan Harmon to me.
>
> We had not worked Sharline in Saline County, and it
> never occurred to me to ask about Harmon. One day she
> blurted out that she used to date "Danny" and he "always
> had cocaine on him." As I sat and listened to her, I
> remember thinking, "if this is true, why has she never
> mentioned it before - she knows Harmon is the primary
> target of my drug task force." For whatever reason
> Sharline had for holding back, she later testified
> before the 1990 federal grand jury about Harmon (as well
> as Roger and Bill Clinton). Several other women have
> since told similar stories about Harmon, but Sharline
> was the first and she paid the price. Harmon was
> protected from indictment and became the district's
> prosecutor. He had his drug task force set Sharline up
> on drug charges, and she is serving an incredible
> 30-year prison sentence.
>
> Sharline hit me with another story a few years later
> after I got involved with the FBI's probe. She told me
> she drove Dan Harmon to the tracks (the sight of a drug
> drop) the night Kevin and Don were murdered. She went on
> to say she sat in the car waiting on Harmon to return
> and saw some kids running out of the woods. Believe me,
> I was not about to tell this story to a soul, and
> further, I was through vouching for Sharline's veracity
> - four year in prison had obviously sent her off the
> deep end. But it happened again - her story proved to be
> true. One of the kids she saw running out of the woods
> came forward to Linda Ives and told her he had been in
> the woods by the tracks with some friends when he saw
> Dan Harmon and others on the tracks with Kevin and Don.
> He said a shot rang out and they ran out of the woods.
> This kid passed an FBI polygraph test and was put into
> protective custody. He knew nothing about Sharline and
> Sharline knew nothing about him, yet their stories
> corroborated each other.
>
> There is another argument on behalf of Sharline - the
> state police and the FBI have attempted to discredit
> her. They claim she has failed two polygraph tests - not
> true. One did not get past the preliminary-questions
> stage. The other she took after spending the night in
> isolation and says she was so traumatized she couldn't
> even pass the "state your name" part.
>
> It took a lot of guts for Ambrose to follow his
> instincts about Sharline and write the incredible things
> she claims. He was bound to have known his critics would
> have a field day, but Ambrose had an agenda - he wanted
> to tell the story of the people who paid a price for
> standing up to the political machine in Arkansas, and
> that's exactly what he did. He is having to pay for
> doing so, but he has recorded history, and if I know
> Ambrose he will consider his bludgeoning by Clinton's
> apologists a very small price.
>
> If you don't buy another book this year, you should buy
> this one. Even though the New York Times would not
> review it, it has made the United Press International
> Best Seller List, and in spite of the New York Times'
> refusal to review it, it made the NYT extended list at
> #22 last week.
>
> "The Secret Life of Bill Clinton: The Unreported
> Stories" has renewed my faith that the government does
> not yet control the thoughts and minds of America. There
> are still enough people who recognize the truth in spite
> of what we are being fed by the mainstream media.
>
> Thanks, Ambrose. It is an honor to know you. I hope our
> paths cross again.
