CONDIT'S U-TURN
New York Post ^ | 1/11/05 | KATE SHEEHY

Posted on 01/11/2005 2:43:53 AM PST by kattracks

Fallen ex-U.S. Rep. Gary Condit has defiantly denied under oath that he had a steamy affair with doomed intern Chandra Levy — flying in the face of allegations from police and her family that he did, NBC's "Today" show reports.

Asked in a recent deposition, "Can you describe in general terms your relationship with Ms. Levy?" the gray-haired ex-congressman from California tersely replied:

"We were friends."

"Did you relationship ever become romantic?" Condit is pressed again.

"No," he replied, according to a transcript of the explosive deposition, parts of which are set to air today and tomorrow on the TV news show.

But the interview — conducted as part of Condit's $11 million defamation lawsuit against famed Vanity Fair crime writer Dominick Dunne — also includes Condit being asked, "When you say you were friends [with the murdered intern], did it ever become more than just friendship?"

"No," Condit said.

The sworn testimony flatly contradicts past reports about the alleged affair in the case.

Early on in the murder probe, D.C. cops questioned Condit — the married dad of two — about his relationship with Levy.

Police sources insisted that Condit finally admitted in a third interview with them in 2001 that the pair had been romantically involved.

Levy's mom also said her daughter once confided to her about the affair.

In addition, Chandra's aunt said her niece told her she was having a relationship with the then-congressman.

I didn't forget about Condit but you did refresh my memory that 9/11 events helped save his bacon by pushing him out of the news.

IIRC, wasn't there a John McCain recall effort that was also put on hold due to 9/11, or am I thinking about someone else?

"U.S. Rep. Gary Condit has defiantly denied under oath that he had a steamy affair with doomed intern Chandra Levy"

Congressman James Traficant will welcome Condit as his cellmate.

Condit's a piece of scum. My guts tell me that he had friends at the FBI who covered him.

Yes he is and it shows. Condit is already making some big, big boo-boos. Let's hope that Gary Condit is proved to be as big a liar as Scott Peterson.
