Topeka Native Among Eight Federal Victims in OKC Bomb

Timothy McVeigh faces charges for eight federal agent deaths in the Oklahoma City attack. Paul Broxterman, a 42 year old HUD special agent from Topeka, died in the blast just days after starting in Oklahoma City. His mother says she remains wary of the trial and plans to testify in any penalty phase. Broxterman is buried at Mount Hope Cemetery in Topeka, with a grave marker added earlier this year.
