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.

  • Morehead President Inaugurated Amid Hope
    MOREHEAD PRESIDENT INAUGURATED AMID HOPE October 31, 1987 | Lexington Herald-Leader (KY) Author: Jamie Lucke Herald-Leader education writer | Page: B1 | Section: CITY/STATE 422 Words MOREHEAD -- The rust color of the hills that surround Morehead State University promised the approach of winter yesterday. But inside Button Auditorium the talk was of a new springtime for the school that has had its share of troubles in recent years. Charles Nelson Grote, 59, was inaugurated as the school's 11th president amid optimistic predictions of rebirth. "The Morehead eagle will soar like it has never soared before," said former Gov. Edward Breathitt, a Morehead regent. Grote, a Morehead administrator from 1960 to 1971, said he was returning to "a special place, a place we call home . the university that I love." Grote said Morehead's "primary reason for being is to serve" Eastern Kentucky. "Morehead State University should be identified by the people of the mountains as their university. This university should be as concerned with the illiterate adult as the graduate student." Although the focus was on Morehead's future, the past was in evidence. Adron Doran, Morehead president from 1954 to 1977, delivered the invocation. Former presidents Morris Norfleet and A.D. Albright were among the dignitaries seated on stage. Breathitt recalled that when Doran became president Morehead faced a crisis so severe that many said it should be closed, but Doran rebuilt the institution. Breathitt pledged his support to Grote not just during the "honeymoon" phase but also during the "storms when lightning is flashing." The inaugural speaker, Glenn Terrell, president emeritus of Washington State University, said Morehead was probably "a better institution" for having weathered the recent tumultuous years.
