Dean links clemency and payoffs to Nixon meetings
Former White House counsel John W. Dean III testifies before the Senate Watergate committee that discussions at Nixon meetings included clemency for E. Howard Hunt and payoffs for Watergate defendants. He says he kept no notes on some meetings and used newspaper stories to trigger memory, while denying knowledge of Ah Ehrlichman. LaRue pleads guilty to a single conspiracy charge in exchange for testimony. Mitchell’s testimony postponed to July 10.
