After meeting Lewinsky at work at the Department of Defense (she was moved from the White House to the Pentagon but continued her burgeoning relationship with Clinton), the two grew close and Tripp eventually began to record their conversations in the fall of 1997 and gave the recordings to authorities in January 1998, amid an investigation into Clinton's conduct with another woman, Paula Jones.
