Recount the night of the watergate break in - ANSWER-the morning of June 17, 1972, Frank Willis,
night watchman of the complex, discovers a piece of tape over a basement door lock in the
watergate apartment and office building in Washington DC. He removes the tape, however, he comes
back an hour later and find it has been taped again-at that time he decides to call the local police

, -Once officers respond to the call, they find 5 plumbers on the 6th floor in the offices of the
democratic national committee

-the burglars at first give false identification, however it doesn't take long for authorities to connect
the burglars to CREEP

-the burglars had entered the watergate complex to install electronic bugging equipment into
telephones to transfer information about the democratic campaign back to CREEP

-most newspapers downplayed or ignored the break-in, however the Washington Post ran an article
on the front page of the sunday edition

-Reporters for the washington post, Woodward and Bernstein, knew there was more to this
investigation so they began to run an in-depth investigation

-In response to the story, Nixon, his campaign manager Mitchell, and the press secretary Zeigler, all
denied any presidential involvement



Recount the investigation - ANSWER-In the earlier days, the American people didn't believe that
Nixon had been involved at all, however, the Washington post kept publishing information and slowly
the American people's perceptions began to change

-Woodward and Bernstein slowly begin to link Nixon's advisors and eventually Nixon himself to a
cover up of the administration's involvement in the burglary

-Once other groups started to avidly pursue the story, the grand jury started to get involved

-They also indicted the 5 burglars: CREEP's director of security, James McCord and 4 others

-Hunt and the burglars later plead guilty to taken apart in the burglary, however, McCord stays silent

-the watergate investigation reveals that there was more than just the burglary. Woodward and
Bernstein obtained evidence that White House officials had made numerous efforts to ensure
Nixon's re-election- they planned to discredit and sabotage several democratic presidential
contenders, they pledged to do whatever necessary to stop government leaks to the press, and they
extorted millions of dollars in campaign contributions to pay the burglars/plumbers



Recount the congressional hearings - ANSWER-In March of 1973, Judge Sirica sentences Liddy, Hunt
and 4 of the burglars to 20, 35, and 40 years in prison

-McCord admits just before the sentencing that there is more information to be shared

-Soon thereafter, L. Patrick Grey the director of the FBI admitted to having destroyed watergate
evidence- he then resigned

-North Carolina Senator Sam Ervin, also the chairman on senate select committee, makes sure all
watergate hearings are televised so that the American people can watch

-In June, John Dean, whom Nixon had fired as White House Council in April, testified before the
Senate Select committee
