SYND 31-7-73 HALDERMAN QUESTIONED BY THE SENATE WATERGATE COMMITTEE 

💀💀💀

It would have been nice if Ervin understood the law. He was the chairman after all.

That was the best!

Sam Ervin was a segregationist and a racist!

Sounds like Christopher Wray today!

@@Hanover-ek4jy You mean the guy that President Donald Trump appointed Director of the FBI?

Lol but he certainly had the cogent points down pat.

Yet he was convicted of conspiracy, obstruction of justice, and three counts of perjury and served time in federal prison. Sounds like misconduct to me... And the courts.

@@darkeyezs The verdict was determined long before he ever was brought to trial. It was a political trial. There was no justice here.

@@tonyauxier5411 He had a court trial with a judge and a jury. Judge Sirica presided and the jury convicted Mitchell, Haldeman, and Ehrlichman of both conspiracy and obstruction of justice as well as all the individual perjury counts submitted for each respectively. There was no verdict in criminal court until that jury came to a decision. There was a grand jury beforehand but that was just for the indictment.

@@darkeyezs His rights were violated from beginning to end. Sirica was corrupt and grandstanding. The comments he made and allowed in this clip show he was not a fair, nor an unbiased judge. At the very least this should have been a mistrial.

@@tonyauxier5411 I'm sure if he was bias or if there was misconduct on his part the conviction would have been overturned on appeal. Regardless of how you, I or anyone feels about the judge, senate or jury in this case the fact is he was guilty. He lied under oath, he conspired to cover up the Watergate break in. You don't have to take my word for... Take his, it's all on tape. It's not hearsay if you hear it in his own voice planning and conspiring to cover it up. If you want to be mad or blame anyone in the case in regards to Hinderman blame Nixon for leaving him to rot instead of giving him a pardon. Threw him under the bus and never looked back.
