The Oklahoma City Bombing - Were there additional explosive charges and additional bombers?
By Michael RiveroMcVeigh had been filmed by a security camera at a nearby McDonald's 24 minutes before the time stamped on the truck rental agreement, wearing clothes that did not match either of the men seen at Elliott's. There is no plausible explanation of how he traveled the mile and a quarter from McDonald's to the rental agency, carless and alone as he claims, without getting soaked in the rain. |
The three people interviewed agreed John Does 1 and 2 were dry. According to Stephen Jones, who has seen
the interview transcripts, it took 44 days for the FBI to convince the car rental agency owner that John Doe 1
was Timothy McVeigh. And in the end they did not dare put him on the witness stand, for fear of what might
happen under cross-examination.There is also an unanswered question with regard to the truck, namely
what was the Army doing with a Ryder Truck just before the Murrah blast?
The Murrah building was not destroyed by a single truck bomb - the Eglin blast effects study and General Partin's Report prove this is the case. |
Before proceeding to the acoustical data, let me explain a little something about explosives
and how people perceive them. I work in special effects. In films, great use is made of low velocity explosives such as untamped black powder and ANFO because they are low velocity explosives. With a great whoosh and roar they belch forth with fire and smoke in a manner that has caused folks to drop their popcorn in matinees ever since sound came in. Movies have conditioned people to expect a certain look and sound to explosions, all based on very low velocity explosives. In a stunning ironic twist, moviegoers seem to perceive the slower explosions as more powerful. Demolition experts will tell you that high brissive or high velocity explosives actually are more powerful, as they build up a powerful shock wave. However, except for actually collapsing a structure, such explosives are unsuitable for film. The blast is over so quickly it can be missed while the film is moving between one frame and the next. There is very little visible smoke and flash, and the "crack" of a C-4 cutter charge is downright disappointing to hear. Thus, the average person's awareness of what an explosion is supposed to look and sound like is based on the movies and low velocity explosives only. In not knowing what high velocity explosives sound like or feel like (as the shock wave moves through the earth), many people might not understand what they have heard or felt on April 19th. With that in mind...

What does it all mean?From the above evidence, it is clear that an event which generated a high frequency surface wave which preceded the main truck bomb blast by 4.2 seconds. This event was recorded at two different locations at distances of 100 yards and 1/3 of a mile. Because the 4.2 second interval remains constant at both distances, theories of mechanism producing echoes are eliminated. Because the spectrogram of the lawyer's tape shows BOTH surface and airborne waves separated by 4.2 seconds from BOTH surface and airborne waves of the truck bomb, arguments of a surface/air phenomenon are invalid. Two events at the Murrah building 4.2 seconds apart produced two sets of surface/air pairs 4.2 seconds apart at the lawyer's office. |
The Seismographic Records from Norman Oklahoma
These images are scans of the seismographic output from the Norman Oklahoma Z-axis recorder
for April 19th and May 23rd; the bombing and the demolition respectively. This is the raw data which led Ray
Brown and Charles Mankin to decide that there may have been a second explosion. It turns out that the 10
second delay is caused by differing propagation times through the layers of shale and sandstone that lie under

Note that the 8 second long sequenced demolition of
the remainder of the Murrah Building yielded a trace the same length as the original bombing. The first trace,
if indeed a single explosion, should be shorter. But it isn't, suggesting that BOTH events consisted of
multiple sequenced detonations over several seconds' duration.

The Murrah Building Cover-up (literally)
The minister who married my wife and I was in OK City right after the Murrah Building bomb(s) exploded, and he volunteered to help dig for survivors. He told of three very odd occurrences. In the first, he was required to show his ID six times before being allowed to help look for survivors. In the second, he confirmed the stories told by others that men in suits and ties were literally stepping over the wounded in their haste to gather up files and certain other items in the debris. |
Lastly, and the oddest story of all, he told of more men in suits and ties taping plastic
sheeting over portions of the building wreckage! The plastic sheeting used was very thin, could not possibly
provide any mechanical support for the covered items, and seemed to serve no other purpose than to conceal the
wrapped object from view. This story has also been confirmed by other witnesses.
Finally,
a photo surfaced which confirms this story (see right).

Note at the very right edge of the photo a large piece of the building covered in shiny black plastic, partly obscured by the flat piece of floor leaning against it. Note the ladder to get a sense of the size of the covered object. |
