Bush deflects pardon talk as North verdicts come in
President Bush’s spokesman refused to discuss a potential pardon for Oliver North as jurors recount deliberations over North’s three Iran Contra convictions. Fitzwater said there had been no discussion of a pardon and offered no comment on the verdicts while North prepared to appeal. Jurors spoke of a close, shared effort and noted the toughest count involved the $13,800 home security system, with North found guilty of taking the system from Richard Secord and of altering NSC documents.
