“I was in the hotel room and realized that what felt like my life was over … Certainly my life would change. I was threatened with prison. And in essence it was told if I didn’t cooperate and wear a thread that I would go to prison for 27 years.”
“And I saw this train vessel through the tracks, and I really felt like, January 21, opened the door. I lived in the Watergate complex with my mother, and I remember that I opened the door, and this was in the days when people would get a newspaper, and in DC it was always several.
“I remember that I saw my name above the fold and looked through the hallway and saw exactly the same newspaper from everyone. It was shocking. It was frightening. I didn’t know how to process something. And it was a moment when life as I knew it was over.”
