Agnew Case Set To Begin In Maryland Probe
The probe into Vice President Spiro Agnew moves forward with testimony from a former close friend who says kickbacks were paid about five times a year until 1969. The grand jury has focused on Baltimore County officials and local engineering firms doing state business. Federal financial records for Agnew were to be examined in Washington, as nine Maryland judges recused themselves from the case and an outsider judge will be appointed.
