vThe only thing I can think of is, he was threatened that, if he talked, something would happen to a loved one.

Presumes he cared about anyone, which doesn't seem to fit what narratives and investigations showed about his background.

I'd be ok with a 2nd man, but why the need to make him a fed? If McVey wouldn't turn, Nichols sure as heck would.

I don’t “make him a fed”. That’s the allegation in the article, the idea being that the feds are covering up the second man because he’s a fed.

I could see the feds doing this.

I have difficulty believing McVey would cover for a fed, unless threatened. I could see how he would cover for a non-fed.
