McV supposedly drew a sketch (of which I have a copy) showing that he & Nichols stood the three empty blue-painted steel VP Racing fuels Nitromethane drums against the inside back door of the Ryder's cargo box. The ANFO/ANNM explosive was mixed (and detonated) in blue plastic drums. There were fragments of blue plastic all over that part of OKC -- including atop roofs.
The rear axle of the Ryder truck was found about a block back up the street -- atop the hood of a small car. But the FBI never reported finding any trace of the three empty blue-painted steel Nitromethane drums.
...just one of many fast-&-loose FBI evidence [mis-]handling anomalies that McV could have shone the light of truth on...
BUT -- does the FBI want to be placed in the light of truth?
I don’t remember everything now, but it was like the Foster Murder and the TWA800 missile strike.
It just didn’t add up. The FBI was told there was going to be an attack. They had three different informers inside Elohim City. Each didn’t know about the other.
When you’re a parent you get pretty savvy at figuring out when your kids are lying to you.
Not even the FBI can avoid that sense that comes over time.
