What was Martha Mitchell’s involvement in the Watergate scandal?
Martha Elizabeth Beall Mitchell (1918 – 1976), also known as Martha Mitchell, was John N. Mitchell’s unrestrained and outspoken American socialite wife. He served as the 67th Attorney General of the United States under the 37th President of the United States, Richard Nixon. Martha Mitchell was a former secretary and teacher, according to reports. She married her husband John N. Mitchell on December 30, 1957. Marty, the couple’s daughter, was born in 1961.
After her husband was appointed Attorney General by President Nixon, the pair relocated to Washington, D.C., in 1968, and started residing in the notorious Watergate complex. Martha Mitchell had already gained the dreaded moniker ‘Martha the Mouth,’ as she was regularly discovered calling on the press to provide political information.

According to reports, Watergate is now connected with a significant political scandal involving the 37th President Richard Nixon’s 1972-1974 administration. His administration was allegedly hampered by evidence of its involvement in the invasion and bugging of the DNC (Democratic National Committee) headquarters at the Watergate complex in June 1972. Martha Mitchell is said to have been the first person to speak publicly about Nixon’s government’s involvement in the shameful Watergate crisis. Martha was a well-known informant during Richard Nixon’s administration.
To quiet Martha Mitchell, the White House reportedly did all in its power at the time, from disobeying her to mistreating her to publicly condemning her as a mentally ill person. When the truth was allegedly revealed, and Nixon’s role in the Watergate incident was revealed, Matha Mitchell was acquitted immediately, and she was lauded as a truly visionary lady.
