Colson testifies Nixon warned of Watergate involvement
Former White House counsel Charles Colson tells impeachment investigators he warned Nixon by mid February 1973 that confidants close to the President were involved in Watergate. He says Nixon declined to hire an outside lawyer and that Colson discussed the matter with Haldeman and the President, urging action. Colson’s draft testimony aligns with prior statements to John Doar, noting concerns about Mitchell and Magruder without hard evidence.
