Arkansas Rapids

The Whitewater ride continues, and from the look of things, the water gets rougher ahead.

“Were you the trooper who took Bill Clinton to the hospital on the day he overdosed?” an FBI agent recently asked one of the members of the Arkansas governor’s security detail. That was just one of the many very personal and delicate questions posed to this trooper and more than a dozen of his colleagues a few weeks ago by investigators for Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr. For the record, Trooper Roger Perry said he never took Mr. Clinton to the hospital because of a drug problem, never saw him use drugs, and saw him drink only moderately.
