Who was the only major player in the whitewater investigation who actually spent time in jail?

jim mcdougal
hillary clinton
susan mcdougal
bill clinton

The correct option is "Susan McDougal"

The Whitewater began with the investigations of the real investments of the state of Bill and Hillary Clinton and its associates, Jim and Susan McDougal, in the Whitewater Development Corporation, a failed business project in the 70s and 80s.

An investigation of the U.S. The Securities and Exchange Commission resulted in convictions against the McDougal for their role in the Whitewater project, but the Clintons were never prosecuted, since three separate investigations found insufficient evidence linking them to the criminal conduct of others related to the treatment of the land. Bill Clinton's successor as governor, Jim Guy Tucker, was also convicted and served time in prison for his role in the fraud. Susan McDougal later served 18 months in prison for rebellion in court for refusing to answer any questions related to Whitewater, and was granted clemency by President Clinton just before he left office.
