Condit takes stand at Levy trial

Gary Condit, the former congressman from California whose political career was derailed when the affair he was having with federal intern Chandra Levy became public after her death in 2001, took the stand Monday in D.C. Superior Court to testify at the trial of the man charged with killing her.

Levy’s disappearance made national headlines until the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, largely because of her affair with Condit, who represented Levy’s hometown of Modesto.
