Butterfield's Revelation: Nixon's Secret Tapes
Alexander Butterfield, the former White House aide who exposed President Richard Nixons secret taping system, has passed away at the age of ninety-nine. Butterfield, who managed the voice-activated recorders placed in Nixons office and other locations, revealed their existence during a 1973 Senate hearing on the Watergate break-in. His testimony led to the discovery of tapes proving Nixons involvement in the cover-up, ultimately forcing Nixons resignation in 1974. Butterfield, a veteran of the Navy and Air Force, was praised for his courage in breaking secrecy and speaking the truth under oath.
