The federal government's criminal case is largely built around the claims of Peter Paul, an ex-convict who turned on the Clintons after producing a lavish Hollywood fund-raiser for Mrs. Clinton in 2000. Specifically, he claims that Mrs. Clinton's campaign staff did not disclose that he had spent nearly $2 million on the event, money that should have been reported as a contribution to Mrs. Clinton's 2000 Senate campaign.

Mr. Paul said he organized and served as a co-host for the affair - a star-studded gala that charged $1,000 a person - to win former President Bill Clinton's support for Stan Lee Media, an Internet venture he had started with Mr. Lee, the co-creator of Spider-Man.

"An ex-president is the best rainmaker you can get," Mr. Paul said in a recent telephone interview from his apartment in North Carolina, where he is free on bail while awaiting sentencing in an unrelated criminal case.

But Mr. Paul says the Clintons and their associates turned their backs on him after The Washington Post disclosed his criminal past, which includes his guilty plea in 1979 to cocaine possession and an attempt to defraud the government of Fidel Castro out of millions of dollars.

Let the record show Rezko is under indictment while Mr. Paul is actually convicted.
