Watergate at 50 with Special Guest Geoff Shepard - Part 1
Author, lecturer and attorney Geoff Shepard was a young lawyer working in the White House when the infamous Watergate break-in occurred. That act of political espionage led to the resignation of Richard Nixon as President, but was that really necessary? Was the evidence of Nixon's knowledge of the break-in fabricated to orchestrate a coup ahead of the next election? Shepard believes the signs point to "yes." In this first of two episodes, Shepard examines the timeline of the break-in, who was most likely behind it, and why he believes the evidence has never been thoroughly investigated.
