The OU Bomber, the OU President, and Me
A Norman police bomb expert said Tuesday he does not believe University of Oklahoma student Joel Henry Hinrichs III committed suicide by blowing himself up outside a packed football stadium.It's all here.
"I believe he accidentally blew himself up," Sgt. George Mauldin said.
When the story of Joel Henry Hinrichs first broke, I had recently finished reading The Third Terrorist by Jayna Davis. If you haven't already, please read it. If you think that McVeigh and Nichols were the primary forces behind the Oklahoma City bombing, please read it.
Greatly concerned for the security at The University of Oklahoma, not to mention the rest of the country, I wrote a letter to David Boren, OU's president. Read the letter here.
Mr. Boren responded to my letter with reassurances that he had received from the FBI, and a copy of a local newspaper article which included reassurances from the FBI. I, for one, was not reassured with his response that...
"I have encouraged the FBI to follow the investigation where ever it might lead. All of my public statements have been based upon information given to me privately by the FBI which has found no connection between the late Mr. Hinrichs and the Islamic community.Information being given by federal law enforcement was exactly what I was questioning! Needless to say, Boren's insistence on seeking truth and reassurance from the feds left me cold.
Today there was an article in The Daily Oklahoman quoting Congressman Tom Cole who was briefed yesterday by the FBI. The statements from Congressman Cole are completely consistent with all of the information given to me by federal law enforcement."
Again, from today's article...
"Some of us will forever wonder what he (Hinrichs) was doing at that time, at that place," Police Chief Phil Cotten said.
Forever wonder, indeed.
