was not only Nixon's campaign manager, he was the Attorney General of the US as well.

From Wikipedia:

The United States attorney general (AG) is the head of the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) and serves as the chief law enforcement officer of the federal government. The attorney general acts as the principal legal advisor to the president of the United States on all legal matters. The attorney general is also a statutory member of the Cabinet of the United States and a member of the United States National Security Council. Additionally, the attorney general is seventh in the presidential line of succession.

What does it say about justice in a country when someone like Mitchell is in charge of it?
