The Debutante at Elohim City: Dennis Mahon, Pt. 4

from Weird Little Guys · host iHeartPodcasts and Cool Zone Media

In 1994, a former debutante named Carol Howe became an informant for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. For six months, she and Dennis Mahon made weekend trips to a white supremacist compound called Elohim City. Carol reported back to the government that Dennis Mahon was stockpiling weapons and talking about blowing up federal buildings. In April of 1995, someone did blow up a federal building. Had her handlers ignored credible information about the plot?  Sources: Jones, Steven. Others Unknown: The Oklahoma City Case and Conspiracy. Public Affairs, 1998 Hammer, David Paul.
