Nixon gave sworn testimony on June 23 and 24, 1975, at a Coast Guard station in California with two grand jurors present. Those proceedings occurred after his resignation and pardon. The National Archives later released the testimony and related materials in 2011. Readers should distinguish the date of questioning from the release date and the date of a modern headline. [1][2]
The Road Map was a different record: a 1974 grand-jury report and evidence referral delivered to the court and then to the House Judiciary Committee. The 2018 public release included numbered factual statements and supporting documents, with protected grand-jury material redacted. Much supporting evidence had already appeared elsewhere. It was not a new 2018 prosecution or a secret conviction of Nixon. [3][4]
In 2022, digitization of U.S. v. Liddy trial material gave online readers access to records and exhibits previously harder to examine remotely. That changes accessibility, not necessarily the historical conclusion. The linked collection lets readers move beyond a cropped screenshot to provenance and context. [5]
This edition checks the linked collections through October 21, 2026. The 2026 reporting discussed next is included with its access limits; this is not an audit of every box in the Archives.
