Watergate probe on Rebozo yields comical missteps
Newly released 270 page memo shows the Watergate Special Prosecution Force spent 16 months chasing leads against Charles G. Rebozo. Prosecutors issued subpoenas questioned 123 people and brought 28 before a grand jury, but by October 1975 found no basis for indictments. The memo, heavily censored, notes a $100,000 cash gift claim from Howard Hughes and reveals several bum leads and speculative tips.
