Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives -- Newt Gingrich -- 1998

On the evening of August 6, 1998 the U.S. Capitol Police stormed into my apartment, accusing me that I had gotten into a violent argument with someone at my local mental health clinic earlier that day (the P Street Clinic), and that at the height of an enraged argument I had threatened to kill two federal law enforcement officers at point blank range, execution style. After sorting out the facts, the U.S. Capitol Police recognized that its action was based on erroneous or false information that had been provided to the USCP by a party whose identity was not disclosed to me.
