TIME Covers Watergate

Mar. 11, 1974: Charging Nixon's Men
They unlawfully, willfully and knowingly did combine, conspire, confederate and agree together and with each other, to commit offenses against the United States ... They would corruptly influence, obstruct and impede ... the due administration of justice ... and by deceit, craft, trickery and dishonest means, defraud the United States.
