McVeigh execution plans face videotape ruling shift
A federal judge ordered videotaping the McVeigh execution in Terre Haute, but an appeals panel halted the plan. Gore Vidal withdrew as a witness due to short notice, and witnesses must be submitted 30 days prior. Oklahoma City bombing victim survivors will view on closed circuit TV as security shuts down nearby offices. McVeigh, sentenced for the 1995 bombing, remains on federal death row housed in the Dog unit with strict escort and seclusion.
