Attorney: OKC bombing tapes appear edited

OKLAHOMA CITY – Long-secret security tapes showing the chaos immediately after the 1995 bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building are blank in the minutes before the blast and appear to have been edited, an attorney who obtained the recordings said Sunday.

"The real story is what's missing," said Jesse Trentadue, a Salt Lake City attorney who obtained the recordings through the federal Freedom of Information Act as part of an unofficial inquiry he is conducting into the April 19, 1995, bombing that killed 168 people and injured hundreds more.

I mentioned in another thread that I heard the BOLO go out on the police radio for a brown Silverado pickup truck driven by three middle-eastern looking men in blue jogging suits. It was mentioned at least once on local TV and then all we heard about was the McVeigh's Marquis.

“but when they need the people to believe them during some crisis or whatnot, we might not.”

“So, I don’t find this new story entirely surprising. It may well be true.”

I find it pretty incredible Americans still have doubts. Look at this video and you’ll see something never shown before on the “biggest mystery in history.” HINT; it’s NOT a mystery it’s a SECRET, that means you’ve been lied to for decades.

To UNDERSTAND HISTORY, you have to THINK, letting the newscasters and the “experts” think for you makes it too easy for the BIG LIE to be told.

The reason the first part of the tape had to be edited was that a note from an FBI reviewer said it showed a passenger getting out of the truck when McVeigh got out of the truck on the driver’s side.

This had to be edited because for the government’s story to be true (which it’s not) McVeigh could not have had a passenger named (do you know who it was?, I do). The brown pickup truck that sped away was identified and the occupants were identified but the government buried this information.

The government found out decades ago that it’s very easy to tell THE BIG LIE and you’ll believe it, no matter how obvious it is that lies are being told.

None of this will really make sense until you know WHO and WHY and HOW these lies were told to cover up the truth. It’s really not very complicated but you’ll believe BS on CBS and NBC before you’ll even consider the obvious truth, the brainwashing of America has been especially effective.

Yes, Jayna Davis was one of the authors I was trying to remember.

But I also recommend this one:

Conspiracy; the release of these tapes was simply a tug on Bill and Hillary’s leash. Even if there were complete tapes, there’s little likelihood that this administration would release them without confirming their political value. There’s so much out there to keep them in line and their previous friends on the left aren’t afraid to use it.
Lord, I love conspiracy stories, they keeps such quality shows on the air.

I live in Oklahoma. I remember the composite drawing of John Doe #2, a middle-eastern man. I remember wondering why they demolished the building in 2 weeks. I remember the extra leg found which has never been identified. McVeigh was executed very quickly in comparison with other death row inmates. His accomplice Terry Nichols made several trips to the Philippines in the months before the bombing. It is not crazy to ask questions.

Well, duh, wouldn’t a truckload of explosives going off sort of affect the local power grid around the explosion?

Sure, but the gaps in the tapes are before the explosion.

See 37 and 45 on this thread.

It’s somewhat doubtful that local libraries will carry these, since many librarians are liberals. But it’s possible.

I live in Oklahoma now but was living in San Antonio when the initial report about John Doe #3 came across in a BOLO that was put out for the Dallas area especially the airport. They even interviewed people from the rental car company.

Next thing we know, we are told there is no John Doe #3 or anyone else involved except those arrested. What a bunch of crap.

Same one. It was very mysterious how his brother died — it was like what did he know about the bombing which led to his brother lookiing into the OKC Bombing. Maybe he could also look into our ‘lone suicide bomber’ and find the information that the FBI does not want anyone to know.

The motel operator placed McVeigh and Nichols at his hotel at the same time a Atta and Mousourri — coincidence — FBI wasn’t interested.

Have you been to the Museum portion of the Memorial? There is a huge picture of the Memorial Service and what stands out is that Bill and Hillary Clinton look like they are the cat that swallowed the canary while everyone else is mouring. Everytime I have taken people there I have heard the same comments from others.

I have also been to Dallas to the Museum at the Book Depository and if Kennedy was shot from that window and killed, I will be glad to take someone to dinner.

As with Waco, clinton quickly removed all the physical evidence and disposed of it.

Waco cleaned itself.
OKC was messy.
NYC was messy, it took Rootie a while to push it onto a barge to Japan.

"So, I don’t find this new story entirely surprising. It may well be true."

May well be???? Did it, or didn't it happen? Look for motives.

Oh, I think the odds are that the FBI wiped the tapes. But I don’t absolutely KNOW it at this point.

I read a great deal about this at the time and am familiar with the basics.

But clinton successfully covered that and many other crimes up, and regretably Bush showed no interest in looking into any of it.

It really bugs me that they expect us to swallow all of this when good common sense says it could not have happened that way.

The problem is, 70% of Americans just don't give a damn. They care more about the latest on Madonna or Kanye than they ever will about the nation. Just look at 9/11. The lack of public outrage eight years later speaks volumes.

He even let them run the "official 911" hearings.

Back scratching buddies.


I have taken a lot of name calling for smelling something fishy (building 7) cough cough....

I can't abide with the brain dead lefts abhorrence, however that doesn't mean they are automatically wrong 100% of the time. It does mean it's harder to objectively view things skewed through an emotional prism, be it hate, anger, fear,or lust, from either the Right or the Left.
