BOMBER CONVICTED ON THIS DAY IN 1997

Timothy James McVeigh  (April 23, 1968 – June 11, 2001)

Timothy McVeigh, a former U.S. Army soldier, was convicted
on 15 counts of murder and conspiracy for his role in the
1995 terrorist bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building
in Oklahoma City.

On April 19, 1995, just after 9 a.m., a massive truck bomb
exploded outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.

The blast collapsed the north face of the nine-story building,
instantly killing more than 100 people and trapping dozens
more in the rubble. Emergency crews raced to Oklahoma City
from across the country, and when the rescue effort finally
ended two weeks later, the death toll stood at 168 people,
including 19 young children who were in the building’s day-
care center at the time of the blast.
