Ex-FBI Agents Call for New McVeigh Probe

WASHINGTON - FBI agents destroyed evidence and failed to share other information that raised the possibility that a gang of white supremacist bank robbers may have assisted Timothy McVeigh during the Oklahoma City bombing, according to documents never introduced at McVeigh's trial.

Both the FBI supervisor who ran the Oklahoma City investigation and the veteran agent who was in command at the bombing scene say the new evidence, detailed in documents obtained by The Associated Press, is serious enough to warrant reopening the inquiry nine years later.


The evidence, never shared with Oklahoma City investigators or defense lawyers, includes documents showing the Aryan Republican Army bank robbers possessed explosive blasting caps similar to those McVeigh stole and a driver's license possibly stolen during the bombing plot.


"If the evidence is still there, then it should be checked out," said Dan Defenbaugh, the now-retired FBI chief of the McVeigh investigation who reviewed the documents at the request of AP. "If I were still in the bureau, the investigation would be reopened."

1. I knew that McVeigh and Nichols

were fans of the National Alliance and their filth, but this is astounding.

2. Having lived in Aryan Nation areas, if the FBI can't figure

out that they are nothing more than hoods and criminals, I say we need to fire everyone and start over again. Any place there is a "compound" of these idiots, you can pretty much trace most robberies, burglaries, drunken arrests and domestic disputes to those places.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out unless the FBI culture is part of the problem.

4. Well it's a good thing we executed McVeigh, isn't it?!

Dead men can't talk.

Oh well, too bad now.

This is one of my main problems with the death penalty. It's simply an impractical way to deal with criminals like McVeigh, who certainly deserve to be killed, but take to their graves a whole TON of information that they might have eventually shared.
