A figure from the Watergate scandal who now lives in central Ohio was hospitalized today after smashing his sedan into a motorcycle, then a truck on Rt. 315, authorities said.
Jeb Stuart Magruder, 72, was in serious condition at Riverside Methodist Hospital tonight, a hospital spokesman said.
It's the third time in four years that Magruder, of Victorian Village, has been in trouble in Ohio.

“Grandview police arrested the former Nixon aide for persistent disorderly conduct while intoxicated after he passed out on a sidewalk”
I don’t know what to say. ;)
...folks said, “Jeb, move away from there...Hollywood is the place you ought to be”....
I recall reading a news article about Magruder becoming the head pastor of a Presbyterian church in Lexington, Kentucky, in, I believe, the early ‘90s. Never heard anymore about him but it appears he may still be carrying a load of guilt with him. May he soon confront his demons and find peace with and through his Lord Jesus. I certainly hope and pray he hasn’t lost his faith as well.
After the Watergate scandal, he left politics and business, earned a Masters Degree in Divinity from the Princeton Theological Seminary in 1981, and was ordained as a Presbyterian minister.
He served as associate minister at the First Presbyterian Church in Burlingame, California and First Community Church of Columbus, Ohio (where for a period of time Magruder chaired that city’s Commission on Ethics and Values), and in 1990 became senior pastor at the First Presbyterian Church of Lexington, Kentucky.
