I compiled a list of 10 different media sources/stories to make up a color-coded timeline for dirty bomb suspect, Al Qaeda man Jose Padilla.

I have the stories saved in one Microsoft Word document for any who doubt I didn't research this, or omitted, included at whim.

Much of the reason I did this is because of the speculation, credited to FReeper The Magical Mischief Tour, that Padilla resembles John Doe #2 from the OKC Bombing. There were a number of questions about his whereabouts during the bombing, and I noticed no concise answer, because every media source seemed to have a different idea of where he was/when.

There are a number of repeats in the timeline, where you'll see they agree. You'll also notice several overlapping dates.

You'll also see the OKC bombing dates, where a strange thing happened, Padilla "disappeared" according to his mosque.

Hope this helps.

Something happened in the HTML transfer, so a few of the colors got screwed up. Sorry about that, and yet another reason I have the stories with links saved in a Word doc.

Great compilation! I think I see 2 corrections:

"... reported US passport stolen to US Consulate in February ..." should go before the raid on March 28.

"... met with Zubayda & other Al Qaeda leaders in March before Zubayda’s capture 3/28/02" should go after the February item above, but also before the March 28 raid.

Outstanding research job!

You are clearly unqualified to work for any major media outlet. You identified an important issue, collected data, presented it in an unbiased fashion, and let the reader draw their own conclusion. :-(

I wonder if you're familiar where all this talk of a JD #2 originally came from - here's some background:
From:
THE JOHN DOE TIMES,
Vol. V, Number 3,
22 March 1997

It appears the the *source* for all this conspiracy talk is the result of a dis-information campaign conducted by TMcV's defense attorney - and John Doe #2 was a case of mistaken identity ...

Less than two weeks after the blast, investigators had found a man who exactly fit Kessinger's description of John Doe 2.

The man, an innocent soldier named Todd Bunting, had been in Elliott's Body Shop the day after McVeigh rented the Ryder truck.

But Kessinger stubbornly insisted that he had seen the two men together on the same day.

Only last November ['96] did Kessinger finally change his mind and identify Bunting as John Doe 2.

Jones, McVeigh's lawyer, relished bringing out Kessinger's contradictions at a hearing last month. Despite the judge's order not to talk about evidence or strategy to reporters, Jones kept feeding speculation to the press.

There was the suggestion that two Ryder trucks were involved in the blast and that the Feds had been warned before the bombing.

Government sources say Jones's theories are farfetched. But by hiring conspiracy-minded detectives (at taxpayer expense: Jones has so far billed the government for about $10 million), he hopes to baffle prospective jurors.

The FBI also has to worry about reports that its lab has become slipshod. Fortunately for the government, the FBI lab "whistle-blower," Frederic Whitehurst, was once Burmeister's mentor.

In fact, Whitehurst is on record saying that some of Burmeister's OKBomb work was "brilliant."

If Jones is going to play the role of Johnnie Cochran, he must find a sympathetic jury. The pool around Denver may have some anti-government views. It takes only a single juror to hang a verdict. But it would have to be a very stubborn juror indeed to hold out in the face of the evidence against Timothy McVeigh.
