On this episode I chatted with Bob Ricks. Bob is an American law enforcement agent and politician from Texas and Oklahoma. He has worked for the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Governor of Oklahoma and in local law enforcement. He is best known as the FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge during the 1993 Waco Siege and as FBI Special Agent in Charge during the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing investigation. Bob played golf at Baylor before starting his career in the FBI. Following his retirement from federal service, Ricks served as the Oklahoma Secretary of Safety and Security under Governor of Oklahoma Frank Keating. He was Secretary during the Keating’s entire term as governor, from 1995 to 2003. Concurrent with his service as Secretary, he was also appointed by Keating as Commissioner of the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety. Ricks served as Chief of Police in Edmond, Oklahoma 2003–2017. Bob is still heavily involved with all things at the OKC Memorial and continues to live the Oklahoma Standard.
