A 1999 video showed then-Representative Lindsey Graham stating the need for witnesses during Bill Clinton's impeachment trial.
Graham, a South Carolina representative at the time, spoke about the reasons he wanted witnesses in Clinton's impeachment."The whole point that we're trying to make is that in every trial that there's ever been in the Senate, regarding impeachment, witnesses were called," he told C-SPAN. At the time, Graham said that if the Senate didn't"get to call meaningful witnesses" that"you're basically changing impeachment.
Graham also stated that Clinton's innocence or guilt could not be found without witness testimony. Clinton's articles of impeachment accused him of perjury and obstruction of justice, providing false and misleading evidence about the nature of his relationship with Monica Lewinsky and trying to tamper with witness testimony."I want to leave behind a clear record that the president committed perjury. He's saying vigorously he's innocent.
