24. The Oklahoma City Bombing (Mini)

Grab your glass (& a box of tissues) and get cozy, let’s talk about murder! 

In this special mini episode, we dive into the horrific story of the Oklahoma City bombing. 

I know, I know, we said we weren't going to be doing mini episodes anymore but this story is directly related to the Waco case so we had to tell it! On April 19, 1995, Timothy McVeigh parked a rented vehicle full of explosives in front of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City. His goal was to make the ATF and the FBI feel the same way as those that lost loved ones in Ruby Ridge and in the Waco siege. 

What resulted was the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history. 168 lives were lost, including 19 children, and several hundred more were injured. Warning: you will likely feel extreme rage during this episode and we wouldn't be surprised if you cried in the end, we sure did!
