Speaker 1:The following presentation isn't Del Marvis Studio's production.
Speaker 2:You're listening to the fact Hunter Radio Network. Here is your host, George Hobbs.
Speaker 3:Welcome back truth seekers from around the world. It's time for another edition of our classic audio series. It's been a minute since we dropped one of these, but we're happy to be back on this Sunday evening. This is a story. If you're a longtime fact Hunter, you know the deal to the Terrence Yankee story. If you're new to the quote unquote Conspiracy World or this podcast, you may not be familiar with it as much. Tonight, we're stepping back again the events that unfolded April nineteenth, nineteen ninety five. The bombing of the Alfred P. Mura Federal Building, which we visited two years ago, took one hundred and sixty eight lives, left a permanent mark on American history.
Speaker 3:And in the middle of that station was again a man by the name of Terrence Yake, one of the first officers on the scene, a man who ran towards the destruction, pulled out the survivors from the rubble with his own hand, and he was recognized for his actions awarded for his courage and remembered as a hero for what he did that morning. Right, And that's the part that most people, especially in the Oklahoma City area, at no now. What far fewer people have taken the time to examine is what came next. And in the months that followed, Yake became convinced that what he witnessed didn't fully align with what was being presented to the public. Shocker, I know, But according to those closest to him, he began documenting what he saw, asking questions and refusing to sign off on accounts that didn't match what he saw.
Speaker 3:And then he started telling his friends and those who were close to him about being followed, about being pressured. And then just over a year after the bombing, he was found dead under circumstances that were officially ruled a suicide. And again, this is a conclusion that his family never accepted and that continues to be challenged by those who have looked closely at the details. What you're about to hear tonight on our classic audio this I think was originally broadcast about ten years ago. This is the Great James Corbett's Requiem for the suicided Terrence Yake It's a detailed examination of a man who did his duty when it mattered the most, and whose story didn't end when the cameras left Oklahoma City. By the way, we also dropped a substack on this It'll be tomorrow morning, which is Monday, April twenty seventh, at six am, so you can read the substack there as well. A great way to share it. A'lan bed this audio in it as well, so if you'd like to share this information, you can just share the substack and get the word out. God bless you everybody, have a wonderful week. Here is James Corbett.
Speaker 1:By all outward appearances, Terence Yake had everything to live for. In the spring of nineteen ninety six, a respected seven year veteran of the Oklahoma City Police Department, Terrence Yekee had earned awards, accolades, and honors for his work in the aftermath of the Oklahoma City bombing on April nineteenth, nineteen ninety five, where he worked tirelessly in the rubble and the debris for over three and a half hours, dragging eight people from the building that day, saving their lives.
Speaker 1:In November of nineteen ninety five, he had been promoted to the position of sergeant in the Oklahoma City Police Department. He had received the key to the city of el Reno, Oklahoma for his heroine in the aftermath of the oka See bombing, and he was just getting ready to receive a Medal of Valor for his actions that day. He had recently reconciled with his ex wife, Tanya, and he was getting ready to move to Dallas, Texas to begin work for the FBI. And yet he was under intense persecution from the Oklahoma City Police Department itself for his refusal to confirm the official story of the Oklahoma City bombing.
Speaker 1:You see, Terence Yankee saw something in those moments after the bombing, something that disturbed him enough to cause him to stand up against the Oklahoma City Police Department that he had spent seven years serving. He knew, and he repeatedly attempted to tell his superiors that the bombing did not happen the way that the public was told that it happened. He was in the process of collecting records and documentation which proved that the oka See bombing was not what it appear to be, but he never had the chance to tell his side of the story to blow the whistle on the things that he saw and experienced in the aftermath of that bombing. He died on the eighth of May nineteen ninety six. His death was ruled as suicide. So who was Terry Yake and what did he know? Well, let's begin exploring that question by taking a look at a very important article from APFN dot org written by Pat Shannon and titled simply enough, Who killed Tera Yake? Quote? Tera Yeke was a giant of a man with a heart as big as the rest of him. I wish I had known him. He was a crusader for truth. Whenever his name is mentioned,
Speaker 1:I think of the newsphoto of him sprinting down Northwest Fifth Street towards the Murrah Building on another of the many rescue missions he performed that ugly day. In his blue uniform, he tends to remind us of an NFL linebacker about to put the sack on an unfortunate quarterback, but this is quickly overridden by the grave concern on the face of a policeman in a panic to save lives. After numerous private investigators produced irrefutable evidence of multiple explosions, unexploded bombs being hauled away after the fact, and the complete and total incapability of an ammonium nitrate fuel oil bomb to cause the kind of devastation seen in downtown Oklahoma City, A giant government cover up became obvious. Only a couple of hours into the rescue, Sergeant Terence Yegey became painfully aware of something disturbing. Did he somehow figure out that the building had been blown from the inside and that the news reports were blowny? Did he overhear a strange conversation from some of the many ATF agents who were on the scene sooner than they should have been.
Speaker 1:Whatever it was, Terry was upset. He called his wife that morning crying. The big old teddy bear of a guy was crying and saying repeatedly, it's not true. It's not what they are saying. It didn't happen that way. Terry Yiki may have been the first to discover the sham. He ran back and forth into that concrete mess of bricks and mortar all day long and continued beyond exhaustion far into the night. He scraped and crawled and dug until his fingers bled, and then kept digging some more.
Speaker 1:In a cadre of heroes that day, Terry's performance was outstanding. On May eleventh, the following year, he was scheduled to receive the Medal of Valor from the Oklahoma City Police Department. He never got it. He was murdered on May eighth, nineteen ninety six, in the country two and a half miles west of the El Reno Penitentiary. No homicide investigation was ever conducted, and there was no autopsy. In an interview with Terry's widow, Tanya Yaike, revealed that her husband had been very upset by something he had seen under the day care center on April nineteenth. He had wanted to go back and photograph it, but the officials would not let him onto the site again. The Oklahoma Building Investigation Committee speculates that what Terry saw may have coincided with the possible evidence of another unreported bombing device uncovered by their science people. Missus Yaki also said that Terry was supposed to be decorated for his work as a rescue person, but didn't want to be put in the limelight.
Speaker 1:Terry felt the investigation was fraudulent and didn't like the fact that the OKPD was honoring people who really weren't deserving of the honor. Sergeant Yeki had told his friends that he was going out of town to hide or secure evidence of a cover up of the bombing by federal agents. It was his day off and he was traveling in his private automobile. In his last known conversation, Terry reported told a friend that he was being followed by the Feds and had to shake them. Previously, his household had been subjected to numerous threatening phone calls by persons unknown, threats which have not ceased even with his death.
Speaker 1:Tanya Yak has moved five times in three years since the Oklahoma City tragedy. She continues to get intimidating letters and threatening phone calls. Since her husband's death, her home has been broken into and personal threats have been written on her living room walls. She remains in fear of her life, constantly seeking asylum with no place to turn end quote. While that is as good an introduction as any I suppose to the mystery of what Terry Yakee may have uncovered on that nineteenth day of April nineteen ninety five, as he struggled, toiled and sweated to rescue life after life after life from that burning, twisted rubble of the Alfred Pimura Building. What was it that Terry Yaik found? What was it that he saw that completely destroyed for him the myth that the media then propounded about the OKC bombing. To do justice to Terence Yeake's life is to explore the unfortunate details of his death, because there is no doubt that what he saw on that nineteenth day of April nineteen ninety five was connected inexorably to his death on the eighth of May nineteen ninety six. To begin exploring this, first, let's listen to
Speaker 1:an extended excerpt from that conversation mentioned in that APFN article between Terence Yake's wife, Tonya Yaki, and Ken Rank and Craig Roberts of AM thirteen hundred KAKC from a conversation that they had about Terence Yake's life and death in nineteen ninety eight.
Speaker 2:Good morning, Tanya, Good morning. Well I've given him a little bit of a preview in the first hour of the case itself, just the basics of what happened and what you know, what you can do. We've got an hour and what we what you can do is kind of fill us in on you know, where you were at, what happened through your perspective, and especially what happened to you. You know, not only during the time of the bombing and shortly after, but all the way up until like today.
Speaker 2:So why don't you start with let's back up just a little bit, take five minutes first, and tell us that you know, Harry was the first officer in the building. He probably saw some things that were dangerous for someone to see and remember and know, and he began working the case. And why don't you just kind of take it to there? What did What did he tell you?
Speaker 4:Well, it actually starts today as the bombing, that he had made some strange statements that at first I wasn't able to really put into any kind of logical order, but later on it began to make sense why he was making these comments. I picked him up. I got a call about eleven thirty maybe eleven fifteen morning of the moming from Presbyterian Hospital. They said Terry had been injured and I need to come down there and get him. In that two hour time, I've been trying to find him, his U his computer in his police vehicle was not working, nobody could get a hold of him. Nobody seemed to know where he was. So I was really concerned because I knew he worked that area early in the morning.
Speaker 4:So I was concerned and was relieved to get the call. So I went down there a Presbyterian hospital picked him up. The strange thing was his first statement that came out of his mouth was get me out of this hospital, no matter what you gotta do, get me out of here. And I said, okay. He's very adamant. I didn't know at the time that I've been told later that he was threatened to the hospital. I didn't know where the source of threatening came, but that's that's what I've been told later on, about a year after his death. As soon as we got in the vehicle and Terry had entered it at carrying Randy Ledgers out of the building.
Speaker 4:Randy was a large man, probably almost three hundred pounds, and he had fallen through some rubbles, so he couldn't even walk can sit up, And as soon as they loaded him into the car, uh, he got very upset, started to cry a little bit and said, Tanya, it's not what they're saying.
Speaker 2:It is.
Speaker 4:They're not telling the truth. They're lying about what's going from down there. And I did try to press him a little bit, ask him questions, but he didn't seem very willing to talk about it. It was just kind of a comment, you know, it's not what it's not what they're portraying it to be. From that point on, it was about two or three days later after the bombing, he had asked me to take him down to the site. And mind you, Cary could even talked. Really was not in any shape to go down there, but he kept insisting we needed to go back down there, said that we needed to go at night when we could not be seen and people wouldn't just recognize us easily. I didn't understand the reason for that, but I did ask a lot of questions either because he just seemed unwilling to give a lot of information. We did go down there, probably between nine thirty ten o'clock, and he said that we were going to go look underneath where the daycare had been. There was something he wanted to see under there and get a picture if possible. As we went down there, we were stopped and I can't remember which personnel it was. I know, definitely it was either atf
Speaker 4:or FBI. I just cannot recall what the name was on the back of his jacket, but it was one of the two. And Terry had attempted to badge his way through and the guy told him no, and he said something a little more specific, like, you know, you're not supposed to be back down here, something along the line that made me realize the two of them recognized each other, and the interaction was very antagonistic. I think had I not been with Terry, he would have said a little more to the man and maybe been a little more forceful about getting through, But it seemed like he thought better about it since I was with him.
Speaker 4:And we left, and then he asked me as we got in the car that I not be seen down at the site. And mind you, I worked a job that might require me to go down to the site, but I did not, because he was very adamant that I not be seen down there at any point in time. The entire year after that was lots of strange incidents, lots of strange comments from him. About fifteen days after the bombing happened, I got a call from his supervisor Lieutenant Joeyanne Randall, and she's been pretty hostile, pretty aggressive, and asked me where Terry was. Told her he was not there, and she taught She said, you tell Terry that if he doesn't get that other report in, that he's going to be reprimanded if he does not get that in by the end of the night. This is Lieutenant Joeyanne Randolds and this was his his supervisor, direct supervisor at the time. Now, let me let me give you a little filler in there. In this timeframe, Terry had written a nine page report. I know that he wrote a nine page report.
Speaker 2:I saw it.
Speaker 4:This is the only report, however, that I've ever asked him to read that he did not let me. I didn't understand the reasons for that at the time. It was, you know, I've written with my husband, you know, out and ride along, so we talk a lot about what had happened at work. You know, I've read reports about the prostitutes on Nine Francis, you know, just meaning that nothing was really all that sacred. You know, if I asked about it, usually he was pretty forthcoming and telling me about it. This time it was an absolute no.
Speaker 4:He didn't want me reading this sign page report, and that's awfully long report. I don't never know too many police incidents reports that are that long.
Speaker 2:But his was you.
Speaker 5:As you look back on that, do you find that as his way of protecting you by making sure that you didn't have that knowledge.
Speaker 4:That's what I believe. That is what I believe. At the time. It was strange to me, but two years later it comes into perspective really clear that he did not want me to know have any knowledge of what was going on down there.
Speaker 2:Okay, so now she wants a second report.
Speaker 4:She wants a second report, and like I said, this is not here, say I got the I know what she said to him. He had told me, and I want to say it was maybe about the eleventh or twelfth day that he had came into the house and was really.
Speaker 2:Upset, just bad.
Speaker 4:Said that they supposedly lost his first report. It was just missing. He was furious. And another thing that was very unlike him that he would not keep a copy of the report. But I think because he had been injured and probably was not expecting that the report would come up missing, I think he probably would have made a copy. Under normal circumstances. But he seemed offended, and he had said that she wanted him to write a much shorter report. You know, it needed to be one page.
Speaker 4:He was being dictated obviously what to write in his report and being told to take a lot.
Speaker 2:Of things out now that people have to understand it. When you turn to report in the first thing it does, it goes to your supervisor. Then it goes to record's division, and they make multiple copies for various locations. To lose the report, the supervisor would have to lose it or they would have to go to these multiple locations that they know the reports that and get rid of all the reports. Right now they want a second report. That lends me to believe that they want a different report because they've already threatened him by now. Yes, and so now they say that's not the report we want. You'll write it, but you'll leave out such and such. That's my theory, right, Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 4:And I agree with that for certain reasons of other things that have gone on. I know Harry was being threatened with disciplinary action all over the place for lots of things concerning the bombing. They want fest to this, but this in fact was occurring, and the report was the first thing that I know about that he was threatened with disciplinary actions. Okay, I'm trying to get my train of thought here, and you know, jump in. Ask me any questions you want going along.
Speaker 2:I'll help you on this. And so I know the story not as well as you, but fairly.
Speaker 6:Well, let me ask one quick question. Tell me. Have you ever told this story before on radio?
Speaker 4:Yes?
Speaker 2:I have?
Speaker 6:You have? Did you have any reaction from it?
Speaker 5:I'm sorry, did you have any particular reactions from it?
Speaker 4:Particular reactions.
Speaker 2:Telephone problems, takeouts, whatever.
Speaker 4:Oh? Yeah, Well, you know I've gotten used to it over two years. You know, it doesn't seem so new to me anymore.
Speaker 6:Could you do this an Oklahoma City station?
Speaker 4:No, I have not. This is the first time I've been able to do it in any Oklahoma City radio station.
Speaker 6:Or in any Oklahoma station at all.
Speaker 4:That's correct.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's always been on short way, the national stuff, right right? Yeah? Okay, In other words, a very limited listenership.
Speaker 6:Are you did any stations turn you down? Would they not let you tell this story?
Speaker 4:Or what? Oh? When Terry's death first happened and I had to do a lot of digging to find out what happened to Terry. Okay, I was really kind of armed with some vague information at the time, most mostly because of how the body actually was when it was found, with the location it was found. The whole story itself was unbelievable, and I had not pinpointed it all to the bombing until about a year after. I was still kind of gathering and kind of blindly searching my way through it.
Speaker 5:So, yeah, that sounds like maybe you had some of the same problems carrying up with it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, now getting getting getting on was uh, you know you mentioned to me that Terry had come to you on probably more than one occasion, and he said, we need to get remarried so you'll be covered by insurance and pension and all this for the kids.
Speaker 4:Yes, we had been divorced at that time. It was about two weeks after before his death that he suddenly became very afraid, very anxious, very nervous. I would not say suicidal, just afraid, and he would come to my house at strange times of the night, unannounced. And this is if you knew Terry Yakey, you'd know how out of character this would be Terry was a polite sort, very respectful, wouldn't even come over unless you know, you knew he was coming in advance. But here he was coming up at my door two o'clock in the morning, three point thirty in the morning, and he was telling me that he was going to get his insurance papers all put together and make sure that I had them.
Speaker 4:He wanted me to leave in the middle of the night with him right then. He said, we need to get remarried. Don't ask me questions. This is the only way I can make sure you and the girls are taken care of in the event that something happened to me.
Speaker 2:But that never happened. That never happened you. You never got the paperwork, or it was never done because.
Speaker 4:It had started, like I said, two weeks beforehand, and he was very vague in what he said, and I spent several hours trying to get him to tell me what was going on. Very frustrating, but it was obvious that there was something going on. I don't believe he was suicidal. But two days before it, he showed up again and he did something very strange. He tossed a VCR in my car. Did not explain why, said that he needed to get these insurance papers to me and left, said he would be back very upset. Forty eight hours later he was dead. It was the last time I ever saw it.
Speaker 2:Now, you said, VCR is in a machine or a VHS tape.
Speaker 4:No, a VCR machine, an entire machine, which, like I said, I, if it were you, you know, you think, what in the world, what what is he doing?
Speaker 6:It wasn't It wasn't a camcar. It was a VCR.
Speaker 4:DCR and there had been a tape in it, but I had not watched it. The VCR came up missing within twenty four hours. Oh, it disappeared out of my house. So it was more concerned at the time of what he was talking about than I would because the VCR was kind of incidental and didn't mean a lot to me at the time. When I went back to look at it to look for it, it had turned up missing.
Speaker 1:And there you go, there's Tonya Yankee talking with Craig Roberts and Ken Rand about the life and death of Terry Yankee. And I would wholeheartedly suggest that people follow the link to the YouTube video from which I scraped that audio, so that you can listen to the entire conversation, which is about an hour long and goes into much greater detail about the harassment that the Yankees were receiving and of course, about the grizzly details of Terrence Yankee's death. Now, this is never a fun part of any episode, but it needs to be done. We have to examine the scene of Terrence Yankee's death to find out more about what was labeled a suicide but which absolutely on its face could not possibly have been a suicide, and to get into the ugly details of that grizzly scene. Let's take a listen to a clip from a very valuable ten minute YouTube documentary put together by We Are Changed, Oklahoma under the title we Are Change Oklahoma. What did Sergeant Terrence Yake Know?
Speaker 6:Now?
Speaker 1:This is a very valuable documentary that came out earlier this year. It's ten minutes long and goes through the story of Terence Yake and his death and also interviews some of Terrence Yek's family members about their comments about what has been labeled a suicide but which virtually no one believes was actually a suicide. So let's listen to a short clip from this We Are Change Oklahoma video in which they discuss the scene of Terence Yake's death.
Speaker 7:Sergeant Yeki had witnessed things during his response to the bombing which did not agree with the official version of events touted by the national media and law enforcement at that time. He was in the process of collecting evidence which supported and documented the inconsistence he witnessed the morning of the bombing at the scene itself. According to the Yake family members, Terrance Schakey was to meet a colleague in the restaurant directly behind me the morning of May eight of nineteen ninety six. He was to discuss records that he had collected regarding the Oklahoma City bombing, which restored in a storage facility about an hour's drive north of here. Terran Shikey never made it to that restaurant on al Reno because on the morning of May eight of nineteen ninety six, at seven am, his vehicle was found in a spot just behind me by a resident living up this road in no more than a mile away.
Speaker 7:It was from seven am until six pm that the car would sit here full of blood, and according to Terry's sister, Vicki, there was actually blood in between the window panes in the back of the vehicle. In addition to the blood, there was an unidentified knife found in the bottom of the glove box, along with razor blades. The car keys and the windows rolled up tight the car was locked. Terry's body was nowhere to be found until later that evening between seven and eight pm OCPD helicopters in addition to the Canadian County Sheriff as well as El Reno Police would have a large search party looking for Terry's body no more than a half a mile from more we're standing. It is important to note how exactly how Yaki is supposed to have killed himself.
Speaker 7:He was said to have slit his wrists and neck, causing him to nearly bleed to death in his car, and then miraculously climb over a barbed wire fence. He then was purported to have walked over one and a quarter mile distance through a nearby field, eventually shooting himself in the head at an unusual angle. Startlingly, no weapon was found at the scene of the body, no investigation was conducted, no fingerprints taken, and no interviews with family members or friends were conducted to try and determine why Yaki would have been suicidal, or if he had in fact been suicidal at all. Instead, the conclusion that Yaki's death was a suicide was reached immediately without an autopsy.
Speaker 1:Again, quite a grizzly scene, but it bears repeating exactly what we are being asked to believe was a suicide. So apparently, Sergeant Terrence Yaki slashed himself several times on the forearms and then cut his own throat twice near the juggular vein, then crawled a mile through rough terrain away from his car, which he had the presence of mind to walk after leaving, before shooting himself in the head with a small caliber revolver somehow along the way, managing to get rope burns or what appeared to be rope burns on his neck, as well as handcuff bruises on his wrists, muddy grass embedded in his slash wounds, and then somehow managed to dispose of the suicide weapon in a way that it was not found at the scene.
Speaker 1:It was laid a found by an FBI investigator after several people had gone over the scene of his death with a fine tooth comb. Well, if you have been listening to this podcast for any length of time, you know what this is called. This is not a suicide. This is someone who has been suicided. Just as Gary Webb could not possibly have shot himself twice in the head, as is alleged by the people who would like to label his death as a suicide and thus sweep under the rug all of the valuable work that he did exposing CIA drug running. So too, would they like us to believe that Terence Yeki butchered himself and then shot himself in the head and then disposed of the weapon, all in the name of discrediting the very person who could have proven that there was something very wrong with the official story of the OKC bombing. Earlier this week, I had the chance to talk to James Lane of We Are Changed Oklahoma. Let's listen to a clip from my interview with James Lane, which of course is available for downloading its entirety from Corbett Report dot com, in which we talk about the work of We Are Change
Speaker 1:Oklahoma in continuing to expose the truth about the Oklahoma City bombing in general and the death of Terrence Yake in particular. Well tell us a little bit about your own involvement with the story, how you came obviously to start with the Okay See bombing in general and specifically this case, and to tell us a little bit about meeting the family of Terence Yeake.
Speaker 2:Absolutely.
Speaker 8:Yeah, Well, I'm born and raised here in Oklahoma, and it's always been something that's you know, I mean, obviously, when when an event like that happens in your home city, you know, you feel that, you know, you want to investigate it more. And I think a lot of people may have just turned away from it because it was so horrific and they just wanted to put it behind him. But I wanted, I wanted to know more about it. And after getting involved with We Are Change, you know, I said, well, We're changing Oklahoma needs to make Oklahoma City bombing. I think the primary focus, you know, I mean the New York chapters, you know, they're deal with the events of September eleventh, But it seemed like, I guess a lot of time had passes from oklahoma'ity, but you know, there's a lot of information there that needs to be you know, told, So we're trying to we put together a trifle flyer that we hand out at the bombing memorial to try to raise awareness and drive folks to you know, the websites that we have. We're trying to get folks to understand that this could happen again, you know. And we're not saying the government did anything.
Speaker 8:I don't think the government can even run the post office. But we have evidence of foreknowledge within certain elements of agencies that's, you know, at this point, you know, needs to be investigated. And you've got senior officials of the Clinton administration saying that the only thing that's going to save Obama is another Oklahoma City or nine one. Those are scary words.
Speaker 1:Absolutely, it certainly is, and I think for anyone who has spent any time researching it, they'll see all of the various forewarning, fore knowledge and provocateurship of the various agencies that were supposedly afflicted on that day, including of course the ATF. But absolutely it's an extremely important case, and it continues to be one as we move into a new age of potential Oklahoma City type bombings, and we hear the rhetoric of that increasing. So tell us, I understand you're working on a documentary about the Oklahoma City bombing. Tell us a little bit about that.
Speaker 8:Absolutely, we are starting a or we've started on a documentary film. Our company is called Freemine Films that can be found at Freeminfilms dot Calm. And the movie is going to be called A Noble Lie because that is from Plato's The Republic, and a noble lie is a lie that is told by knowingly told by the elite in order to maintain social harmony or their position and their social status. And we think that that is relevant here because we saw a lot of people that whether or not they were part of the planning or any of that, that's we're not saying that, but they they were complicit in the cover up. They used the event to their own benefit. You know, this this tragedy, these you know, these people, real people died that day. And you know, you got Bill Clinton run around saying that that's uh, that's what God him reelected.
Speaker 6:You know.
Speaker 8:So because everybody, you know, they really focus on the September eleventh events, and everybody has a lot of knowledge about that. But it seems like the Oklahoma City bombing, maybe so much time has passed we need to revisit it because there are some of the most glaring examples of cover up there that you know, we don't see that, and they've got they got, you know, the more sophisticated in cover up with with nine to eleven, whereas Oklahoma City.
Speaker 8:I mean, it's just it's just very blatant, and we think that it's time that the story be told. And that's why you know, we're getting the interviews, we're talking with, you know, Taran Cheeky's family. We got interested in his case initially because we found out, you know, he was one of the first responders, and that's where we got into the nitrous gas cloud. I mean, for me, that was one of the major, you know, pieces of evidence that showed that the official story is not true. I mean there's mountains of evidence beyond that. I mean, you had the largest man hunting history for John Doe number two, and then all of a sudden, we're just just supposed to ignore that and act like, you know, well that didn't happen. They said that the people were confused at the writer truck rental place, Well, they only rent a couple of trucks a day. It's not a high traffic office.
Speaker 8:And I don't think that they're going to be confused about who came in with who and at what time. And it wasn't like a lot of time had passed. This was they were questioned forty eight hours after he had rented the truck. So, I mean, the multiple witnesses, We've got twenty three AFFI David's where people saw Timothy with another man. You know, this can't be denied, and the FBI just acts like, well, it didn't happen.
Speaker 1:Absolutely, And of course there are so many aspects to this case, and as I've gone through on my podcast before, and as I know you talk about quite a bit in the various media that you do, but obviously one of the lynchpins of that case is the Terence Yeakey death, which was so obviously not what it was portrayed to be. And just one more time, tell us about meeting the family and what that was like.
Speaker 8:Absolutely, it was. It was difficult. I mean, there are some of the most kind, loving people that I've met. I mean, they just welcomed us into their home. I think that they were grateful that someone, you know, was trying to dig into this because they had been fighting for so long and have been told no and turned away so many times. They really they really showed us a lot of kindness and love. So it was really difficult to listen to the family, you know, recount the death of their loved one. I mean, it was just, you know, his mother, Ludella, she says, you know, it's that it's very painful to go over at time and time again, but she vowed that she would not give up until the truth was known about the death of her son. His sisters or they're they're great ladies and very very brave in what they're trying to do, and they they are still going down to you know, try to get his belongings. I mean, that was just something that happened recently. I mean they had they had had his weapon in storage for all these years. So right now they're trying to get the investigation going, and that that costs money, you know, and that's why it's taken
Speaker 8:so long. But there are some people that are interested and have agreed to come on board and pursue this case.
Speaker 1:For anyone who has been involved in research for any length of time, you will have no doubt encountered the old refrain. I don't believe in conspiracies because someone would have talked.
Speaker 2:Well.
Speaker 1:Gary Webb attempted to talk and he was suicided. Terence Yake attempted to talk, and he was suicided. Many many others have also attempted to tell the truth, and they have been disposed of in like manner. But suffice it to say that to honor the memory of those who have fallen in attempting to expose the truth, we must take up that torch and continue to expose the truth and shine the light of the truth on those dark corners that the dark operators would like to keep in the dark. In this way, we can honor those who have fallen in the pursuit of truth and justice. I leave today's final words to Terence Yak's own grandmother from the We Are Change Oklahoma video about Terence Yakes's death.
Speaker 4:There were lies told about everything that happened, and I would like for.
Speaker 2:The world to know.
Speaker 1:That his life was just taken away from him for nothing.
Speaker 3:You're listening to the fact Hunter Radio Network.
Speaker 2:Just the facts. Mammy

Episode 412: The OKC Bombing April 19, 1995 (Part 1)
This episode examines the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing not as a closed case, but as an event surrounded by unresolved questions, conflicting expert analysis, and a narrative that many argue does not fully account for the physical evidence. Drawing from engineers, explosives specialists, and firsthand accounts, we look at claims that a simple ANFO truck bomb could not have produced the pattern and scale of destruction seen at the Alfred P. Murrah Building, along with reports of changing official timelines, disputed forensic conclusions, and overlooked witness testimony. Set against a broader…

Episode 411: Waco and Accountability- What Really Happened April 19, 1993
The 1993 Waco siege unfolded as a 51-day confrontation between federal authorities and the Branch Davidians, beginning with a failed ATF raid on February 28 and escalating into a full FBI-controlled standoff at the Mount Carmel compound. This podcast frames the event not as a simple law enforcement action, but as a deliberate and aggressive operation that intensified over time, involving armored vehicles, psychological pressure, and ultimately a decision to force an end through tear gas insertion. On April 19, that plan was executed, and within hours the compound was engulfed in flames,…
