COLORADO : Attorney Gag Order Issued in Bomb Case
- Share via

But U.S. District Judge Richard P. Matsch stopped short of ordering an investigation into alleged leaks to the press of critical evidence and confidential information in the case. Timothy J. McVeigh and his Army friend, Terry L. Nichols, are awaiting trial for the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building last year that claimed 168 lives.
