Hate American Made ////// The Soldier 

Part 5 of 6 

www.TrueCrimeGarage.com 

Timothy James McVeigh was a decorated American Soldier who served during Operation Desert Storm. After the war McVeigh had difficulties finding a new path for himself. Ultimately, he became enraged against the government that his soldier duties once served. He believed and told others that the U.S. government was in the process of taking away the freedoms of its citizens. Then Ruby Ridge happened and when the Waco standoff was in its early stages he was present, even giving an interview to a local reporter. These events were “proof” to McVeigh that he was right. All of his fears were coming true. Timothy McVeigh became America’s worst homegrown terrorist when he blew up the Alfred P. Murrah building in downtown Oklahoma City. What meaning did the Oklahoma City Bombing hold for Timothy McVeigh and beyond? Was it revenge? Was it the first act of a revolution? Was it a going away present for Richard Snell?

Hate American Made  //////  Ruby Ridge

Part 2 of 6 

www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

Ruby Ridge is the name given to a standoff that lasted for days when federal agents were attempting to serve a bench warrant for husband, father, and property owner Randy Weaver. Weaver was wanted for failure to appear in court, facing illegal weapons charges. A series of errors created unnecessary bloodshed. Several people lost their lives on both sides of this standoff. The words Ruby Ridge have grown to be an “uncomfortable” phrase for many people, communities, and U.S. Government agencies. Ruby Ridge was much more than a big and deadly misunderstanding. Ruby Ridge was an abuse of power and forever shall be a stain on the agencies that abused their power.

Hate American Made  //////  The White Supremacist

Part 1 of 6 

www.TrueCrimeGarage.com

Hate itself is not a crime. Hate is a feeling, an emotion but hate can very easily become criminal. In fact we see it everyday on the News, playing out before our eyes. Richard Wayne Snell was a white separatist and a white supremacist. His hate became criminal. He committed several hate crimes that resulted in the murders of innocent people. Unfortunately within certain groups throughout several states Richard Snell was looked at as a leader, an influencer, and a lone wolf. He was a bad man full of hate who preferred to operate alone but when his mission became overthrowing the U.S. Government it required that he work with others. He found friendship in several hate groups that operated far and wide, from Arkansas all the way out to Washington state. Richard Wayne Snell’s hate fueled more hate and that hate turned violent and deadly.

God’s Misfits /// Part 2 /// 831 

Part 2 of 2 

www.TrueCrimeGarage.com
One year ago two women went missing. Veronica Butler and Jilian Kelly were traveling together to pick up Veronica’s children. At the time, the children were in the custody of their grandmother Tifany Adams. After the women were reported missing, Tifany instructed police that the two women never arrived to retrieve the kids. Veronica’s vehicle was discovered abandoned. At the scene of the vehicle police found signs of foul play. Days later the bodies of the women were discovered buried a little more than 8 miles from the vehicle. Someone went to great extremes in a failed attempt to conceal the bodies. This is the case that many refer to as "The Kansas Moms Murders."
