  • It has cost about $49,340.84 per day the highest per day cost of the other presidential investigations examined since 1973.
  • The cost of the Watergate special investigation during Richard Nixon and Gerald Fords administrations was $47,094,590.10 (adjusted for inflation) over 1,464 days for $32,168.44 per day.
  • Details about these investigations as well as special prosecutor/independent counsel/special counsel investigations under Presidents Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H.W.
  • While each investigation has its own facts and circumstances, this report should add a bit of sunlight to the somewhat arcane world of special counsel / independent counsel / special prosecutor investigations.
