Watergate Bugging Plans Tied to Mitchell with Haldeman Involvement
Former Attorney General John Mitchell aided in planning political spying and illegal wiretaps for the Watergate operation with apparent acquiescence from H R Haldeman and other aides. Jeb Magruder testified that Mitchell approved targets and a $250000 budget while Nixon aides promised to keep truth from surfacing. He said Nixon likely did not know of the plan, though Haldeman may have read some documents.
