McVeigh Denied Broad Conspiracy in Oklahoma City Bombing
Timothy J. McVeigh went to his grave in June 2001 insisting that no widespread conspiracy was behind the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, but also predicting that some people would continue to believe that a larger conspiracy existed. "For those die-hard conspiracy theorists who will refuse to believe this, I turn the tables and say: Show me where I needed anyone else," McVeigh wrote in a letter to The Buffalo News a few weeks before his execution. "Financing? Logistics? Specialized tech skills? . . . Show me where I needed a dark, mysterious "Mr. X.’ " .... During more than 70 hours of interviews for the book "American Terrorist: Timothy McVeigh and the Oklahoma City Bombing," McVeigh anticipated and discussed several of the issues that arose in this week’s AP story:
* He said he was aware of allegations about his involvement with a bank robbery gang but denied them.

* He admitted that, in the days before the bombing, he contacted two white supremacist groups, hoping they might help him find a hide-out after the bombing. McVeigh said he never got any help from the groups.

* He predicted that David Paul Hammer, another death row inmate, would write a book about him but said it would be full of lies.
The latest conspiracy allegations caused concern in Oklahoma City, where 168 people were killed and more than 500 injured in the bombing, and in Pendleton, where the convicted bomber’s father, retired factory worker William McVeigh, still lives. McVeigh said he believes his son told the truth in interviews for American Terrorist. The book, detailing Timothy McVeigh’s claim that he planned and carried out the bombing with help from former Army buddy Terry L. Nichols, was published two months before the bomber was executed. Asked about the newest conspiracy theory, the elder McVeigh said: "I don’t believe any of that. I think it’s false." ....
