Here’s what happened to the OKC bomber, his accomplice and others in the 30 years since the attack

Timothy McVeigh was executed on June 11, 2001, for his role in the Oklahoma City bombing, famously referring to the child victims as “collateral damage” and quoting the poem “Invictus” before his death. Co-conspirator Terry Nichols, now serving a life sentence without parole, admitted to helping build the bomb and expressed remorse for his involvement, while Michael Fortier, who testified against them, entered witness protection after serving time for failing to warn authorities. John Doe No. 2, initially sought as a suspect, was later identified as an innocent individual, and the cases surrounding the bombing have left a lasting impact on those involved.
