Lou Russell is the most intriguing figure in a scandal full of intrigue. Perhaps much like Michael Stevens, his potential role could not have been spun by either the Washington Post or the Senate Watergate Committee in a way that avoided the CIA, and therefore the public has heard nothing about him. But Russell’s participation, if proven, implicates far more than the CIA. For those skeptically wishing to cling to the conventional Watergate narrative, Lou Russell is a mystery who cannot be explained.
