Mitchell vetoes of crime suit on milk firms bared
The Justice Department disclosed that former Attorney General John Mitchell rejected two recommendations to pursue criminal charges against Associated Milk Producers Inc. AMPI, a major Nixon campaign contributor, was instead urged to face civil antitrust action. McLaren and Salo affidavits reveal no evidence supporting extortion claims, while the DOJ plans to release related documents for judicial review. The case ties AMPI campaigns contributions to policy favors amid broader probes of dairy industry funding.
