OU BOMBING INFO & LINKS
– 9/21/06:
Well, it seems my old blog will not be up anytime soon (not that I have any way of knowing!), so I have decided to re-publish what I can here at the Liberty Rocks Blog. Thank you to everyone for their support and encouragement! – Michelle K.
ORIGINAL POSTING:
Following are some of the gathered resources I have regarding the OU Bombing. Some of these resources need updating which I hope to get to ASAP. Please bookmark this new page for future reference purposes.
EXCLUSIVES:
The following pages were originally posted at my old blog; On Politics & Other Random Thoughts. The free host that blog was at has subsequently “gone under”. I do not know if it will ever come back online, therefore I have decided to re-publish what I have saved here.
Comprehensive Summary of the OU Bombing events @ On Politics –
This is my personal coverage of the events of October 1, 2005 and what followed. It was created out of a request while posting the night of October 1st on FreeRepublic.com. Many people had heard of the story late, and there needed to be a way for others to catch up to the latest news – then the summary was born. I have listed a lot of sources and such throughout the piece. This needs to be added to an updated, but it is pretty thorough up till the release of the FBI documents regarding the investigation in November of 2006.
Cover-up? Missing Video Report @ KOCO-TV Ch. 5 –
This page concerns a video news report that originally aired at KOCO-TV Ch. 5. It “mysteriously” disappeared after a day or two being available on the KOCO website. This particular video report contained information regarding a “missing year” of time when backtracking on Joel Hinrichs III’s activities in the years before the OU Bombing. When this video report aired and the days before it KOCO-TV’s reporters were digging and reporting what they found much as the other local stations. When the report was pulled off their website they began to only report the “official” Lone Suicide story pushed by OU President David Boren…
Hinrichs’ Missing Ammo – Triangle Fraternity Meeting Notes –
This post discusses a possibility that Hinrichs may have attracted the attention of authorities a full year before the OU Bombing. This is pure speculation, but given some of the circumstances it seems likely that at least the EBay seller was doing some type of background checking before completing the sale.
OU Suicide Note? STILL More Questions Than Answers –
This post discusses the “magical” appearance of a suicide note from Hinrichs. The FBI had originally reported that no suicide note was found, but later reversed this saying a “suicide note” had been found on Hinrichs’ computer when they originally searched his apartment. Read more at the link above…
OU Magistrate Unseals Documents in the OU Bombing Case –
This post regards the unsealing of the FBI documents in the OU Bombing Case. You can read about the Judge’s orders and other information regarding this development at the link above…

On February 28th, 2006, less than 4 months after the Hinrichs blast the Council on Islamic American Relations incorporated in Oklahoma. An incorporator, Lobda Hewedi listed an address of 504 Sooner drive ( right nextd door to Hinrichs) at Parkview apartments. “CAIR” is a controversial group with past leaders convicted or accused of terrorist defined crimes. Many commentators claim it is a Saudi supported group that has supported the various aims of groups like HAMAS, etc…
