about this author

edit data

John Wesley Dean III was White House Counsel to U.S. President Richard Nixon from July 1970 until April 1973. As White House Counsel, he became deeply involved in events leading up to the Watergate burglaries and the subsequent Watergate scandal cover up, even referred to as "master manipulator of the cover up" by the FBI. He was convicted of multiple felonies as a result of Watergate, and went on to become a key witness for the prosecution, resulting in a reduction of his time in jail.
Dean is currently an author, columnist, and commentator on contemporary politics, strongly critical of conservatism and Republican Party, and a registered independent supporting impeachment of President Bush.
