Lady led the operation in which 5 robbers entered in June 1972 to the headquarters of the National Committee Democratic Party In the Watergate complex of the Washington buildings. At the time, current US President Richard Nixon was running for re-election. An investigation into the case revealed that Nixon not only knew about the break-in, but agreed to it. Faced with the accusations, the president resigned.

In connection with the case, Gordon Lady was sentenced to 20 years in prison for conspiracy, robbery, wiretapping and illegal phone calls and refused to testify before a Senate committee. However, Lady did not serve the entire sentence. Five years later, President Jimmy Carter pardoned him, stating that the punishment was too severe.
