Like that other famously philandering Democrat, Bill Clinton, Edwards is forced to testify under oath about his extra-marital sex life—specifically that much-talked-about sex tape he made with mistress Rielle Hunter—and whether he might have spent federal campaign funds to keep Hunter lavishly hidden away from the media and under the watchful eye of trusted aide Andrew Young…
So now the screws are being slowly tightened, according to court documents seen by The Daily Beast. Former senator and presidential hopeful Johnny Reid Edwards has been notified his deposition is set for “May 13, 2010, and the deposition of another witness on May 24, 2010.”
No one will confirm who that other witness might be. Some speculate it is Elizabeth Edwards, the estranged and very angry wife of John. The Daily Beast can report while Mrs. Edwards may, indeed, be deposed at some point in this process, the next person on the list is someone who, according to a well-placed source, “knows a lot about Rielle and her past relationships with all sorts of men.”
