Chuck Colson’s Rise From Watergate Convictions to Prison Ministry
Chuck Colson, once Nixon’s special counsel linked to Watergate, pleaded guilty in 1974 to obstruction of justice over Ellsberg discrediting efforts. He served seven months, embraced faith, then founded Prison Fellowship Ministries, shaping a humanitarian public life and writing more than 20 books. Ellsberg later questioned Colson’s remorse, while Colson’s post prison work drew praise for humane reforms.
