Capstone Viewpoint on Watergate Legal Bills and Fees
The piece argues that legal costs from Watergate trials dwarf medical bills, noting Maurice Stans and John Mitchell face bills around $380k-$393k, plus expenses, funded by Nixon re election funds. It contrasts surgeon bills with lawyers fees, cites Haldeman supporters raising $400k, and observes many defendants still pay anyway after failed appeals. It ends with a jab that malpractice suits can cover doctors, while failed legal battles leave clients paying.
