4: Linchpins in Herington

Jurors hear about some very peculiar fertilizer sales, a burglary at a rock quarry, and about a treasure trove of evidence investigators found in Herrington. They also hear a letter McVeigh allegedly wrote in which he signed off by saying, "send no more letters after April 1st." Visit AMurderousDesign.com to see the script for the entire podcast, and an interactive trial visualization report for a summary of the case broken down by witness and subject matter. The entire trial transcript is available at Oklahoman.com. The first 6 shows are based on those transcripts, telling the story of the bombing as the jurors heard it. The last 3 episodes contain the interviews with some of the lead lawyers on the case, Prosecutor Larry Mackey, and McVeigh Attorneys Stephen Jones and Christopher Tritico. In the final episode of A Murderous Design, we sit down with journalist and Timothy McVeigh Biographer Lou Michel, who, along with Dan Herbeck wrote the New York Times Best Seller "American Terrorist."
