Jaworski Declares Break In Was Completely Legal
Special Watergate Prosecutor Leon Jaworski argues in a 62 page memorandum that Nixon could not have ordered the Ellsberg psychiatrist break in, and that defendants had no authority beyond a general mandate to investigate leaks. He notes all national security evidence is irrelevant to the case over alleged unlawful search and seizure. The memo precedes four days of court hearings on related issues.
