LaRue links Mitchell Dean to Watergate cover up scheme
Frederick C. LaRue testified before the Senate Watergate committee that he, former Attorney General Mitchell, and John Dean were aware of a grand cover up to hide the Watergate wiretapping. He said Mitchell approved the final $75,000 payment and Dean refused to authorize it. LaRue noted Magruder seemed to know of the break in advance, while Mitchell reacted with surprise to the 1972 Democratic HQ break in.
