17 June 1973: "#WatergateHotel" Frank Wills: Security guard known for foiling the #17June1972 break-in at the #DemocraticNationalCommittee at the #Watergate complex in #WashingtonDC.  Wills (24YrsOld) called the #Police after discovering that locks at the complex had been tampered with. Five men were arrested inside the #DemocraticHeadquarters, which they had planned to bug. The arrests triggered the #WatergateScandal & eventually the RESIGNATION of #PresidentRichardMNixon in #1974. Hailed as a HERO, Wills later struggled with his '#Celebrity' & keeping a job. He played himself in the #1976 film: "#AllThePresidentsMen. He shuttled between #Washington and other southern cities, with some time spent in the #Bahamas. He said in an interview that #HowardUniversity FEARED LOSING THEIR 'FEDERAL FUNDING' IF THEY HIRED HIM. In the mid-1970s, Wills finally settled in #NorthAugustaSouthCarolina, to care for his aging mother, who had suffered a stroke. TOGETHER, THEY SURVIVED on her $450 per month #SocialSecurityChecks. By the time of his mother's death in 1993, Wills was so BROKE & DESTITUTE that he had to donate her body to medical research because he had no money with which to bury her. Frank Wills died at the #MedicalCollegeOfGeorgiaHospital in #AugustaGeorgia at the age of 52 from a brain tumor. 💕#4evahaka2 #FAMUGrad1908💚 #CreditToOwner https://www.instagram.com/p/By1DKegHC-z/?igshid=fwt6kj5d8j4m
