Senators Delay Hearing in Baker Case Probe
The Senate Rules Committee postponed a public hearing as members debated pursuing new leads in the Bobby Baker case. Witnesses questioned included Don Reynolds and Baker aide Edward Hugler as the panel weighed its next steps in the disputed investigation. Reynolds testified he acted as Baker’s intermediary in a $25,000 payment linked to a 1960 Democratic fund, though McCloskey contradicted the claim.
