...permit him to go untried while some two dozen of his agents have already paid the penalty of conviction or face trial for crimes committed in his behalf? If all were pardoned in a grand gesture of healing, what of justice for such as Charles Colson, Egil Krogh, Jeb Stuart Magruder, Herbert Kalmbach, Donald Segretti and the lesser Watergate burglars who already have been imprisoned? What of justice in a historical perspective, when so many have admitted their guilt, if Nixon were allowed to cling to the fiction that he resigned only because he had lost his "political base...
...Jeb Stuart Magruder, 39, was accompanied by the Rev. Louis Evans Jr., of Washington's National Presbyterian Church, when he was sentenced in May for conspiring to obstruct justice. Last year after the Watergate affair had begun to unravel, Magruder joined one of the intimate "covenant" groups that Evans had started in order to feed the "spiritual hunger" in Washington. Jeb's wife Gail joined another (also attended by Mark Hatfield's wife Antoinette).

Gordon Liddy, general counsel to C.R.P., spells out a $1 million intelligence plan: electronic surveillance, abduction of radical leaders, muggings, the use of call girls to obtain information from leading Democrats. According to Magruder, Mitchell tells Liddy to come up with something more "realistic." On March 30, Mitchell, now director of C.R.P., meets with Magruder to discuss...
...instant celebrities and brought notoriety, despair or both to some who were already prominent. A few of the best-known casualties maintained strict silence last week. Former Vice President Spiro Agnew and former Treasury Secretary John Connally would say nothing; at the Federal Prison Camp in Allenwood, Pa., Jeb Stuart Magruder watched the speech with other inmates. When an official asked what he thought, Magruder replied: "No comment." In Beverly Hills, John Dean told the federal marshals who are guarding him that he would say nothing about the resignation "today, tomorrow or in the near future." One notable exception...
