Former Attorney General Kleindienst testified that President Nixon was dumbfounded when told on April 15 that top aides were accused in Watergate. He said the second hand information did not implicate Nixon and that he learned of the accusations in early morning briefings from Justice Department officials about Dean and Magruder. Dean had claimed Nixon knew of the cover up as early as September 15, 1972, but Kleindienst said those charges were not relayed to him at the April 15 meeting.
