What was to become known as the Watergate scandal began June 17th, 1972 with the arrest of 5 "plumbers" burglarizing the Democratic headquarters at the Watergate Hotel.
The "plumbers" were shown to have been paid from a slush fund attached to the Committee to RE Elect the President (CREEP).
After 2 years of investigation evidence was uncovered linking the President directly with the attempted cover up and Richard Nixon resigned rather than face impeachment.
