At the Iran-contra trials, Reagan's Nation Security aide, Oliver North was found guilty of altering and destroying documents, accepting an illegal gratuity, and aiding and abetting in the obstruction of Congress.

Former National Security adviser John Poindexter was convicted of five felonies involving conspiracy, obstruction of Congress, and false statements. Robert McFarlane pleaded guilty to withholding information from Congress.

Oliver North and John Poindexter both had their convictions overturned on appeal by two Reagan appointees, Judge Lawrence H. Silberman, who served as a foreign policy advisor to Ronald Reagan's 1980 campaign, and Judge David Sentelle, who named his daughter Reagan, after the president.
