I'm just a tiny, eensy weensy bit skeptical. Didn't they pull a Pulitzer Prize from a reporter in Boston (or was it D.C.?) who was finding stories like this?
Over the years, I think I've heard this story or variations on it from people 'giving their testimony' more than a dozen times.

Ever read "The Cross and the Switchblade"?

It also has a "Hillary goes to Bosnia" ring to it.
