Timothy Mcveeigh Fraud Case

Seeking revenge against the government, Timothy McVeigh knowingly, intentionally, willfully and maliciously carried out the deadliest act of domestic terrorism within the United States history. McVeigh and Nichols planned a violent act against the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building and its occupants. McVeigh attempted to recruit others to assist in the act of violence. On September 22, 1994, McVeigh rented a storage unit in Herington, Kansas using the name of Shawn Rivers. On September 30, 1994, McVeigh and Nichols purchased forty fifty-pound bags of ammonium nitrate in McPherson, Kansas under the name of Mike Havens (Fox News, 2001). In late September 1994, McVeigh made telephone calls in an attempt to obtain detonation cord and racing fuel.

Murrah Federal Building and identified the building as the target. In early 1995 firearms stolen in the Arkansas, robbery was sold following Nichols' return from the Philippines. McVeigh, Nichols and Michael Fortier obtained money from those sales. On February 9, 1995, Nichols used cash to pay for the continued usage of storage unit No. 40 at Council Grove, Kansas in the name of Joe Kyle. McVeigh obtained a driver's license in the name of Robert Kling with the date of birth of April 19, 1972, on March 1995. This was the date the attack was carried out. On April 14, 1995, McVeigh purchased a 1977 Mercury Marquis in Junction City, Kansas with cash. On April 14, 1995, McVeigh contacted the Nichols residence in Herington, Kansas from Junction City, Kansas regarding the plan. On April 14, 1995, McVeigh called a business using the name Bob Kling in Junction City pertaining to renting a truck capable of carrying 5,000 pounds of cargo. On April 14, 1995, McVeigh paid for with cash a room he rented at a motel in Junction City,

On April 18, 1995, at Geary Lake State Park in Kansas, McVeigh and Nichols constructed an explosive truck bomb. They utilized barrels filled with a mixture of ammonium nitrate, fuel, and other explosives. Each item was placed in the cargo compartment of the rental truck. On the morning of April 19, 1995, McVeigh drove toward Oklahoma City at around 7 a.m. While wearing a T-shirt with a drawing of Abraham Lincoln and the words “SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS,” McVeigh arrives in Oklahoma City about 8:50 a.m. He drove the Ryder truck up North West 5th Street shortly before 9:00 a.m. McVeigh then parked the truck at a drop-off point in front of the Murrah Federal Building igniting two bomb fuses. He locked the truck and walked commonly toward a nearby YMCA building. At 9:02 A.M., the truck detonated a homemade high-powered bomb. The truck bomb exploded taking with it much of the Murrah Building and seriously damaging many buildings nearby. This horrific terrorist attack left 168 people dead, and over 500 injured. This attack included 19 children and infants which were in the building’s daycare center.
