In this bit10 moments
  • 46:35An Oklahoma City first responder turned investigator of the bombing is interesting because cops typically aren't natural troublemakers and don't question authority.
  • 47:01Tim knows a lot of cops from his Irish New York background—they won't stay late investigating something without a serious reason.
  • 47:28The cop was found with seven to nine stab wounds, ligature marks on his throat, a slit throat, and was ruled a suicide.
  • 48:02The officer was investigating records and requesting certain things when he died.
  • 48:15The ATF wasn't in the Oklahoma City building that day, implying they may have been tipped off to stay away.
  • 48:40The FBI allegedly stopped the rescue effort to collect classified documents floating around after the bombing.
  • 48:58Whitewater investigation documents were moved to the building just months before the bombing.
  • 49:13Building Seven also housed Enron investigation records, and the Pentagon lost two trillion dollars right up in smoke.
  • 49:33Witnesses reported seeing a third person in the truck, but Terry Nichols was charged with a lesser accomplice crime instead.
  • 49:52Terry Nichols was convicted as an accomplice and received life in prison, still alive today.
