Memo mislabeling Weaver as suspect in bank robberies
A Feb 28 1991 memo circulated within the U S Marshals Service wrongly described Randy Weaver as a suspect in multiple bank robberies in Eastern Washington and Western Montana. ATF officials called the claim inexcusable and uncorroborated, noting Weaver had not fired a weapon. Senate hearings scrutinized the miscommunication surrounding the Ruby Ridge case.
