As Attorney General Merrick Garland prepares to leave the Department of Justice (DOJ), his tenure is under intense scrutiny, not only for his handling of politically charged investigations but also for resurfacing allegations tied to his role in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing case. Garland, who once described his work on the bombing investigation as “the most important thing” he had ever done, now faces accusations of concealing critical evidence, including the existence of a second suspect, John Doe #2, and suppressing surveillance footage.
The Oklahoma City bombing, which killed 168 people and injured hundreds more, remains one of the deadliest acts of domestic terrorism in U.S. history. Timothy McVeigh was convicted and executed for the attack, but questions about a potential accomplice have lingered for decades. Critics, including investigative journalists and legal analysts, allege that Garland, who oversaw the prosecution of McVeigh, played a role in obscuring evidence that pointed to a second individual involved in the bombing.
A transcript from the April 27, 1995, preliminary hearing reveals that Garland, then a senior DOJ official, appeared to downplay the possibility of a second suspect. According to the transcript, Garland questioned witnesses in a manner that minimized references to John Doe #2, despite eyewitness accounts and other evidence suggesting McVeigh was not acting alone. Additionally, Garland’s handling of surveillance footage from the bombing has been called into question, with critics accusing him of suppressing video evidence that could have shed light on the involvement of others.
Clinton meeting raises eyebrows
Further fueling speculation is a recently uncovered detail from the Clinton White House visitor logs. On April 26, 1995 — the day before the preliminary hearing — Garland met with then-First Lady Hillary Clinton in the White House. The purpose of the meeting remains unclear, but critics argue that the timing and sensitivity of the case suggest the discussion may have been related to the bombing investigation.
