Kleindienst Disqualifies Self From Watergate Probe
Atty. Gen. Richard G. Kleindienst says he will not participate in the Watergate investigation due to personal and professional ties with involved individuals. John W. Dean III rejects being scapegoated as Jeb Magruder implicates Dean and Mitchell in planning the bugging and bribe scheme. Mitchell calls the report nonsense. Dean releases a White House statement urging caution in judging guilt until all facts are known and individuals have a chance to testify.
