Historians want Nixon grand jury testimony opened
None
Thirty-five years after Richard Nixon testified secretly to a grand jury investigating Watergate, a group of historians has launched a legal bid to make public what the president said under oath about the break-in that drove him from office.
Nixon was interviewed near his home in San Clemente, California, for 11 hours on June 23-24, 1975, 10 months after he resigned. It was the first time a former US president had testified before a grand jury, but the 297-page transcript remains sealed from the public. (AP)
