Dated inscription from author on fep. Introduction by Helen Thomas. Susan Carol McDougal (née Henley; born 1955) is one of the few people who served prison time as a result of the Whitewater controversy of the 15 individuals who were convicted of federal charges. Her refusal to answer "three questions" for a grand jury, on whether President Bill Clinton lied in his testimony during her Whitewater trial, led her to receive a jail sentence of 18 months for contempt of court. That made up most of the total 22 months she spent incarcerated. She received a full presidential pardon from Clinton in the final hours of his presidency in 2001. Following prison, she became an advocate for prison reform. She served as a chaplain of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. More
