Gordon Liddy, chief operative in the White House Plumbers under President Richard Nixon, recalls how the Watergate burglars were caught during their break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate office complex. “The Plumbers” was a Special Investigations Unit tasked with finding and preventing leaks to the media on classified government information.
