il7,_3 Mitchel Approved er ate, Payoffs, ruder Reportedly Says By Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein Washington Poet Staff Writers Former. Attorney General John N. Mitchell and White House counsel John W. Dean III approved and helped plan the Watergate bugging operation, according to President Nixon's former special assistant, Jeb Stuart Magruder. Mitchell and Dean later arranged to buy the silence of the seven convicted Watergate conspirators, Magruder has also said. Magruder, the deputy campaign manager for the Presi- dent, made these statements to _federal prosecutors- Satur- day, according to three sources in the White House and the Committee for the Re-election of the President. The sources said that Magruder is sCheduled to testify before the Watergate grand jury today and is expected to repeat the statements under oath. One of the sources went so far as to say that Magruder's statements and other information developed by the prose- cutors—especially regarding the payments of cash to the_ conspirators to remain silent—are expected to result in the criminal indictment of both Mitchell and Dean. Dean's resignation as counsel to the President is con- sidered imminent, according-to--sources in the White House. Two sources in the executive branch said yesterday that White House chief of staff H. R. (Bob) Haldeman also. may resign as a result of recent Watergate dis- clothres. There is no known evidence to link Haldeman to criminal involvement in the bugging, the sources said. Magruder, who served at the White House as a deputy to Haldeman and later as Mitchell's principal assistant at the President's re-election committee, "chose to talk be- cause he felt the walls were coming in on him," one source said yesterday. Magruder will not be granted immunity from prose- cution, the sources said yesterday, but he hopes to receive some sort of favorable treatment.

The testimony was then presented in Washington, DC, to the full grand jury that had been convened to investigate political espionage, illegal campaign contributions, and other wrongdoing falling under the umbrella term Watergate. Watergate was the defining event of Richard Nixon’s presidency. In the early 1970s, as the Vietnam War raged and the civil rights movement in the United States continued its momentum, the Watergate scandal ignited a crisis of confidence in government leadership and a constitutional crisis that tested the limits of executive power and the mettle of the democratic process. “Watergate” was 1A list of the records that petitioners seek is attached to the Petition, filed concurrently herewith.

Book Review Essay The Making of the Attorney General: John Mitchell and the Crimes of Watergate Reconsidered Gerald Caplan* I. INTRODUCTION Shortly after I resigned my position as General Counsel of the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department in 1971, I was startled to receive a two-page letter from Attorney General John Mitchell. I was not a Department of Justice employee, and Mitchell's acquaintance with me was largely second-hand. The contents were surprising. Mitchell generously lauded my rather modest role "in developing an effective and professional law enforcement program for the District of Columbia." Beyond this, he added, "Your thoughtful suggestions have been of considerable help to me and my colleagues at the Department of Justice." The salutation was, "Dear Jerry," and the signature, "John." I was elated. I framed the letter and hung it in my office.

    Sommerfeldt 1 Jessica Sommerfeldt Senior Seminar Professor Bernstein December 19, 2017 Who’s Afraid of Gerald Ford? How a Forgotten Presidency Taught a Wounded Nation How to Forgive On April 4th, 2006, famed journalist and investigator Bob Woodward took the stage to address the audience at the University of Michigan’s Ford Library. “Be careful about judging and predicting when things will happen,” he advised. “Maybe it will look different in five years or more—try to stick to the facts.” Then he made a statement that the younger Bob Woodward would never have dreamed of saying: “I concluded that the pardon was the right thing for Ford to do—the sensible thing to do—and the courageous thing to do.”1 The pardon he was referring to, of course, was the one that followed what would forever be known as Woodward’s most shining achievement: after two years of spearheading the investigation of the Watergate wiretapping scandal alongside his partner, Carl Bernstein, President Richard Nixon was forced to resign from office, the first—and thus far, only— president to do so. One month later, on September 8, 1974, Nixon’s former vice president and successor, Gerald Ford, issued Nixon a blanket pardon for all offenses he had committed “or may have committed” over the course of his tenure as Chief Executive. Both reporters were inflamed, with Bernstein lamenting that “the son of the bitch pardoned the son of a bitch.” Five 1 Tian Lee, “Woodward: President Ford Knew What Needed to be Done,” (The University Record Online, April 10, 2006).
