À propos de ce contenu audio
In 1992, a family living off-grid in the mountains of Idaho became the center of one of the most controversial federal sieges in American history.
What began as an ATF attempt to pressure Randy Weaver into becoming an informant spiraled into a deadly confrontation at Ruby Ridge. A U.S. Marshal was killed. Fourteen-year-old Sammy Weaver was shot in the back. Days later, Vicki Weaver was killed by an FBI sniper while holding her infant daughter inside the family cabin.
Court dates were changed. Warrants were issued. Rules of engagement were rewritten. And in the aftermath, nearly every major charge against Weaver collapsed in court.
So how did a missed court appearance turn into a sniper killing a mother at her cabin door?
This episode breaks down the full timeline — the entrapment allegations, the failure-to-appear controversy, the shoot-on-sight orders, the sniper shot, and the fallout that shook public trust in federal law enforcement.
