Jeb Stuart Magruder was an American Presbyterian minister, businessman, civil servant and author. A Deputy Director of Richard Nixon's Committee to Re-Elect the President, he pleaded guilty to conspiracy and served time in a federal prison as a result of his participation in the Watergate affair. Magruder's recollection of Richard Nixon's involvement in the burglary and subsequent coverup became clearer after leaving public life and entering retirement. He was a published author and spent a number of years speaking publicly about ethics and his role in the Watergate scandal. A Republican, Magruder was the second official in the administration of President Richard Nixon to plead guilty to charges of involvement with events resulting in the first Watergate burglary and the subsequent Watergate scandal.
