Mitchell testifies he aided, not obstructed probe
Former Attorney General John N. Mitchell told a federal jury he sought to aid the SEC investigation into Vesco, denying any attempt to fix or quash the probe. He described his actions as aimed at moving the inquiry forward, while noting he learned of Vesco’s $200,000 contribution only months later. The trial, also involving Maurice Stans, paused for a long weekend recess due to a juror’s father-in-law death and Good Friday.
