Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:11,896 --> 00:00:15,724
The Garden City bomb plot
was one of the biggest cases
of my career.
2
00:00:15,827 --> 00:00:18,620
[Patrick speaking]
3
00:00:18,724 --> 00:00:23,000
The level of hate
was just so horrific
and so vile.
4
00:00:23,103 --> 00:00:27,551
They wanted to take out
as many Muslims
as they could.
5
00:00:29,241 --> 00:00:33,793
This is an Oklahoma
City-magnitude attack.
6
00:00:34,586 --> 00:00:37,379
[Brandon] My dad
was an undercover informant.
7
00:00:37,482 --> 00:00:41,620
It really, really tore at him-
the idea of putting us all
in danger.
8
00:00:41,724 --> 00:00:46,000
Dan Day is probably
the most courageous person
I've ever met.
9
00:00:46,862 --> 00:00:48,931
He knew what was at stake,
10
00:00:49,034 --> 00:00:54,103
but he had the courage
to keep going.
11
00:00:54,206 --> 00:00:58,413
The FBI has a mission
to look for all threats
of terrorism.
12
00:00:58,517 --> 00:01:01,275
It was scary.
We had to stop it.
13
00:01:01,379 --> 00:01:03,000
I'm special agent, Amy Kuhn.
14
00:01:06,137 --> 00:01:08,206
[narrator] This isFeds.
15
00:01:21,482 --> 00:01:24,137
[Amy] The FBI was something
I was always interested in,
16
00:01:24,241 --> 00:01:27,862
but it's not something
that I thought
real people did.
17
00:01:28,724 --> 00:01:30,344
I am from Kansas.
18
00:01:30,448 --> 00:01:34,172
I grew up on a ranch.
My family raised cattle
and horses.
19
00:01:35,413 --> 00:01:38,378
My worst fear
is that I have the ability
20
00:01:38,482 --> 00:01:44,275
to stop something evil
from happening to people,
and I'm not able to do it.
21
00:01:49,413 --> 00:01:52,655
[Tony]
Garden City is this jewel
in western Kansas.
22
00:01:52,758 --> 00:01:58,344
Many, many cultures
that over time have come there
primarily because of the jobs,
23
00:01:58,448 --> 00:01:59,378
and they've stayed.
24
00:02:00,586 --> 00:02:05,275
The beef-packing plant,
over the years, had drawn in
different racial groups.
25
00:02:05,379 --> 00:02:09,000
A Mexican population,
and then a Central American
population,
26
00:02:09,103 --> 00:02:12,413
And then recently,
it's been Somalis.
27
00:02:12,517 --> 00:02:15,862
They were leaving a country
that was torn by civil war.
28
00:02:18,586 --> 00:02:21,931
The folks of Garden City,
even having had the benefit
of the diversity
29
00:02:22,034 --> 00:02:23,620
that that community has had
over the years,
30
00:02:23,724 --> 00:02:26,448
the Somalis were different
from anything
that they've seen.
31
00:02:28,206 --> 00:02:32,241
They're the first
Muslim group of immigrants.
They stand out.
32
00:02:35,137 --> 00:02:37,034
[Abdirahman]
I was born in Mogadishu.
33
00:02:37,137 --> 00:02:42,067
And so, back when
I used to live over there,
it was really a war zone.
34
00:02:42,172 --> 00:02:45,067
My mom told me
that my dad got blowed up
35
00:02:45,172 --> 00:02:48,413
with a bazooka or something.
36
00:02:48,517 --> 00:02:53,551
He was walking
towards the house,
and he just blowed up. Boom.
37
00:02:53,655 --> 00:02:58,413
Since we got here,
my life has been
wonderful, amazing.
38
00:02:58,517 --> 00:03:00,241
I met nice people.
39
00:03:00,344 --> 00:03:02,034
Free breath air,
40
00:03:02,137 --> 00:03:05,931
and you don't have
to watch over your shoulder
or anything.
41
00:03:06,034 --> 00:03:09,344
I found it, like, a place
that you could call it a home,
you know.
42
00:03:10,689 --> 00:03:16,482
In 2015, we had ISIS in Iraq.
We had ISIS in Syria.
43
00:03:16,586 --> 00:03:21,724
The impact in general
on people was very much
one of inspiring fear.
44
00:03:21,827 --> 00:03:24,482
[speaking foreign language]
45
00:03:24,586 --> 00:03:29,103
A lot of folks were afraid
that ISIS was coming to us.
46
00:03:29,206 --> 00:03:31,620
[speaking foreign language]
47
00:03:31,724 --> 00:03:33,655
It was before the election
of Donald Trump,
48
00:03:33,758 --> 00:03:38,896
so we were hearing
the rhetoric very much
every day in the media.
49
00:03:41,620 --> 00:03:46,862
[Amy] It's kind of crazy
to think that this is
where it all started.
50
00:03:46,965 --> 00:03:52,344
We got several calls
about a flyer being posted
at the library.
51
00:03:52,448 --> 00:03:58,034
The rumors online
were that there was a couple
of Somali males
52
00:03:58,137 --> 00:04:01,482
that were trying
to get people recruited
for ISIS.
53
00:04:01,586 --> 00:04:04,827
If ISIS is recruiting
at the Finney County Library.
54
00:04:04,931 --> 00:04:07,241
that's obviously something
that I wanna know about.
55
00:04:11,172 --> 00:04:15,586
[Brandon] Around 2015,
I was in the habit
of going and running,
56
00:04:15,689 --> 00:04:19,757
and my dad would go with me,
and we would go
by the library.
57
00:04:21,447 --> 00:04:27,310
There was a sign hanging up
that was pro-Palestinian
and had a Palestinian flag.
58
00:04:28,448 --> 00:04:30,000
My dad decided
to show his friend
59
00:04:30,103 --> 00:04:35,482
because being
more Conservative around here
is very much more pro-Israel.
60
00:04:39,310 --> 00:04:41,310
The friend invited us
to a cookout
61
00:04:41,413 --> 00:04:43,275
that was happening
a few days later.
62
00:04:44,482 --> 00:04:46,344
When we got invited
to the barbeque,
63
00:04:46,448 --> 00:04:49,896
we expected to talk about
the pro-Palestine poster.
64
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,275
But it turned out
to be something
completely different.
65
00:04:54,758 --> 00:05:00,379
There was a bunch of guys
in camo with open carry,
66
00:05:00,482 --> 00:05:04,241
which isn't a big deal
in this part of town,
67
00:05:04,344 --> 00:05:06,655
but it was
a little unexpected.
68
00:05:09,827 --> 00:05:12,965
[Brandon] At first,
it was just normal
political jargon and stuff,
69
00:05:13,068 --> 00:05:15,793
that they were talking about.
70
00:05:15,896 --> 00:05:21,551
Making somewhat
silly arguments
for their political beliefs.
71
00:05:21,655 --> 00:05:26,931
But then they brought out
the flag that we'd found
at the library
72
00:05:27,034 --> 00:05:28,586
and passed it around.
73
00:05:28,689 --> 00:05:31,896
Then they talked more and more
about the Muslims
74
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,827
and their fear and concern
over them.
75
00:05:34,931 --> 00:05:38,551
That's when he realized
that it was a militia meeting.
76
00:05:40,103 --> 00:05:42,034
[Brandon] They thought
that the Palestinian flag
77
00:05:42,137 --> 00:05:44,310
was sympathizing
with Islamic extremism.
78
00:05:44,413 --> 00:05:46,275
They seemed to know it's ISIS.
79
00:05:46,379 --> 00:05:49,724
and they start ranting
and raving about the Muslims.
80
00:05:49,827 --> 00:05:51,965
And they were spreading
this idea
81
00:05:52,068 --> 00:05:54,793
that the Somalian community
was recruiting for ISIS.
82
00:05:56,413 --> 00:06:01,206
My dad was just shocked
that anybody could be
absurd enough
83
00:06:01,310 --> 00:06:04,965
to draw those conclusions
from absolutely no fact.
84
00:06:05,068 --> 00:06:09,344
The thought of being racist
or discriminating
against someone
85
00:06:09,448 --> 00:06:10,931
because of where
they came from
86
00:06:11,034 --> 00:06:15,620
was, like, completely
unreasonable to him.
87
00:06:17,620 --> 00:06:20,000
[Brandon] My dad was born
and bred in Kansas.
88
00:06:21,448 --> 00:06:24,620
He's very much more
on the Conservative end
of the spectrum.
89
00:06:25,793 --> 00:06:27,793
He was very
pro-Second Amendment.
90
00:06:27,896 --> 00:06:29,310
He would always
go shooting a lot.
91
00:06:29,413 --> 00:06:32,517
But he wasn't the kind
of person that would probably
join a militia
92
00:06:32,620 --> 00:06:35,172
because of his belief in God-
93
00:06:35,275 --> 00:06:38,965
that everyone had value
and dignity,
94
00:06:39,068 --> 00:06:42,448
and his belief
in what America is
95
00:06:42,551 --> 00:06:45,586
and that it's a nation
of brotherhood and unity.
96
00:06:51,310 --> 00:06:53,896
[Amy] We were just trying
to find somebody
that we could talk to
97
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,034
who saw this flyer
to determine whether
it was factual or not factual.
98
00:06:58,137 --> 00:07:00,551
Through, like,
looking through Facebook
99
00:07:00,655 --> 00:07:02,931
and kind of trying
to figure out
how it originated,
100
00:07:03,034 --> 00:07:07,862
we came across somebody
who said, well, his friend
had told him
101
00:07:07,965 --> 00:07:10,551
that he had seen this.
102
00:07:10,655 --> 00:07:13,103
And I said, "Okay, well,
could we talk to your friend?"
103
00:07:13,206 --> 00:07:16,517
My dad got a call
from his friend saying,
104
00:07:16,620 --> 00:07:19,172
"Hey, I need you
to come over right away."
105
00:07:22,034 --> 00:07:23,827
[Amy] When he walked in,
we introduced ourselves
106
00:07:23,931 --> 00:07:26,172
and said,
"Hey. We're with the FBI,
107
00:07:26,275 --> 00:07:28,344
and we heard that you
had some information
108
00:07:28,448 --> 00:07:30,517
about what had happened
at the library."
109
00:07:30,620 --> 00:07:34,896
And he said, "Yes,"
that it was not an ISIS flag.
110
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,379
And then he told us that
there was this Three Percent
militia that was going on.
111
00:07:39,482 --> 00:07:42,793
A militia in and of itself
isn't particularly concerning.
112
00:07:42,896 --> 00:07:47,724
When the militia starts
talking about using violence
to effect political change,
113
00:07:47,827 --> 00:07:49,793
that's when it becomes
very concerning.
114
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,068
[Amy] The militia
was concerned about ISIS
and the Somali population.
115
00:07:57,172 --> 00:08:01,586
In general, you know,
if people highlight one group,
116
00:08:01,689 --> 00:08:05,034
it can... There is a potential
for something to go bad.
117
00:08:06,931 --> 00:08:09,241
[Robin]
The FBI knew that
The Three Percent
118
00:08:09,344 --> 00:08:12,000
existed as a national
militia organization.
119
00:08:12,103 --> 00:08:13,965
And because
of the library flyer
120
00:08:14,068 --> 00:08:15,827
and the investigation
that we did there,
121
00:08:15,931 --> 00:08:20,586
we knew that Three Percent
patriots of southwest Kansas
122
00:08:20,689 --> 00:08:23,655
had formed a branch
in our region.
123
00:08:23,758 --> 00:08:26,758
I told Robin I may talk to Dan
124
00:08:26,862 --> 00:08:30,482
about potentially becoming
a source in the militia group.
125
00:08:33,448 --> 00:08:34,586
[Brandon] My dad came home
126
00:08:34,688 --> 00:08:38,172
and said that the FBI
had suggested
127
00:08:38,275 --> 00:08:40,861
that it might be a good thing
for him to join the militia
128
00:08:40,965 --> 00:08:45,000
and let them know
if there was something
suspicious going on.
129
00:08:45,103 --> 00:08:46,896
We just thought
it was kind of cool.
130
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,689
It was something
that we kind of felt
131
00:08:49,793 --> 00:08:51,655
that he would probably
be good at.
132
00:08:53,172 --> 00:08:54,862
[Robin]
Dan is very unassuming.
133
00:08:54,965 --> 00:08:58,172
He's not a threatening
character in any way.
134
00:08:58,275 --> 00:09:00,758
You read him
for being a participant
and a friend.
135
00:09:02,620 --> 00:09:06,862
He made contact, again,
with the people
from the militia.
136
00:09:06,965 --> 00:09:09,137
He started
going to their meetings.
137
00:09:09,241 --> 00:09:12,310
Just gradually
became friends with them.
138
00:09:12,413 --> 00:09:14,655
In the Kansas
Three Percenters,
139
00:09:14,758 --> 00:09:17,275
probably about 20 people
were in there.
140
00:09:17,379 --> 00:09:23,068
They began to develop plans
to conduct surveillance
on private Somali refugees.
141
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,689
Dan went to a firearms
training exercise
142
00:09:29,793 --> 00:09:31,068
with the Three Percent
militia.
143
00:09:32,793 --> 00:09:36,655
And we learned
of another individual
144
00:09:36,758 --> 00:09:39,241
that really spooked Dan.
145
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,206
Patrick Stein showed up
at this training.
146
00:09:44,310 --> 00:09:47,137
He said that Patrick was very,
very passionate
147
00:09:47,241 --> 00:09:51,172
and very angry about Muslims.
148
00:09:51,275 --> 00:09:55,724
And he described
those Muslims, in his words,
as cockroaches.
149
00:09:55,827 --> 00:09:59,172
From there, we began
to understand,
150
00:09:59,275 --> 00:10:01,724
"Okay. Well, maybe
we need to look
at this Patrick Stein guy."
151
00:10:03,275 --> 00:10:07,758
We learned that Patrick Stein
grew up on a farm in Kansas.
152
00:10:07,862 --> 00:10:12,758
A conservative,
hard-working American
is what he seemed.
153
00:10:14,517 --> 00:10:17,137
[Alyssa] My dad was able
to kind of figure out
154
00:10:17,241 --> 00:10:22,241
that 9/11 had been
the turning point for Stein-
155
00:10:22,344 --> 00:10:25,931
of directing his hatred
at Muslims.
156
00:10:27,655 --> 00:10:29,551
The FBI wanted my dad
157
00:10:29,655 --> 00:10:33,689
to become
Patrick Stein's best friend.
158
00:10:33,793 --> 00:10:37,310
Someone that Patrick Stein
could and would
159
00:10:37,413 --> 00:10:40,206
tell basically everything to.
160
00:10:42,103 --> 00:10:47,172
Patrick Stein wanted to see
some of the Somali
community places
161
00:10:47,275 --> 00:10:51,206
and get a feel
for where things were
prior to doing surveillance.
162
00:10:51,310 --> 00:10:53,793
So he had talked to Dan
about showing him around town.
163
00:10:55,344 --> 00:10:59,103
As they went around,
Patrick Stein got more
and more irate,
164
00:10:59,206 --> 00:11:02,931
as they see more and more
Somalian people
just doing their business,
165
00:11:03,034 --> 00:11:04,689
living their daily lives.
166
00:11:05,862 --> 00:11:08,241
He pulls up
to an intersection,
167
00:11:08,344 --> 00:11:11,931
and two Somalian women
are walking by.
168
00:11:12,034 --> 00:11:17,068
Patrick sees these women.
He becomes
absolutely ballistic.
169
00:11:17,172 --> 00:11:22,137
Patrick Stein was saying,
"Look at all these
[bleep] cockroaches.
170
00:11:22,241 --> 00:11:27,000
This is disgusting.
I can't believe they'd allow
these cockroaches here."
171
00:11:29,413 --> 00:11:33,206
My dad genuinely could see
that Patrick Stein
172
00:11:33,310 --> 00:11:38,206
was about to pull his gun
on these women.
173
00:11:39,862 --> 00:11:44,793
So he told him, like,
"Man, you're gonna get
the cops called on us.
174
00:11:44,896 --> 00:11:47,517
You don't want it to go down
like this."
175
00:11:48,862 --> 00:11:50,827
[Brandon] My dad started
to reach for his gun, too,
176
00:11:50,931 --> 00:11:54,896
because he realized how close
Patrick was to actually
pulling the trigger.
177
00:11:57,655 --> 00:12:00,551
But he was able
to calm him down.
178
00:12:00,655 --> 00:12:05,206
That was something
that really, really
shook him to his core.
179
00:12:08,172 --> 00:12:11,068
[Amy]
While Dan was riding around
with Patrick Stein,
180
00:12:11,172 --> 00:12:16,310
Patrick Stein informed Dan
that he was part
of another militia,
181
00:12:16,413 --> 00:12:18,241
called Kansas Security Force,
182
00:12:18,344 --> 00:12:23,103
and he was looking
to recruit members
away from Three Percent
183
00:12:23,206 --> 00:12:26,517
that he thought
would actually do something.
184
00:12:26,620 --> 00:12:30,103
He asked Dan to join.
185
00:12:30,206 --> 00:12:34,241
When he came home,
he was visibly shaken,
186
00:12:34,344 --> 00:12:39,068
just almost like
he was going to cry
because it was terrifying.
187
00:12:39,172 --> 00:12:44,000
That's when he realized
that it was gonna
be dangerous.
188
00:12:44,103 --> 00:12:48,103
He was very seriously
considering stopping
being an informant.
189
00:12:49,620 --> 00:12:52,482
[Amy]
It was a gut check for me
190
00:12:52,586 --> 00:12:56,965
in that if Dan decides
he doesn't wanna
do this anymore,
191
00:12:57,068 --> 00:13:00,103
then there is potential
that something bad
is gonna happen.
192
00:13:00,758 --> 00:13:04,000
That made me feel terrified.
193
00:13:08,793 --> 00:13:14,586
Dan- he was considering
just bailing
on the whole thing.
194
00:13:14,689 --> 00:13:19,586
For me, it was very important
to talk to Dan and say,
195
00:13:19,689 --> 00:13:22,724
"Look, I understand
that what we're asking you
is hard,
196
00:13:22,827 --> 00:13:26,379
but we need you to make sure
that you're with Stein
on surveillance.
197
00:13:26,482 --> 00:13:30,724
And that you're there-
so if he is talking about
doing something crazy,
198
00:13:30,827 --> 00:13:33,448
that you're there
to talk him out of it.
199
00:13:35,758 --> 00:13:41,103
After that, my dad prayed
on it, and he consulted us.
200
00:13:42,344 --> 00:13:45,344
He told us that this was
the kind of guy
201
00:13:45,448 --> 00:13:48,586
that he might just show up
at our house one night
and start shooting.
202
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,206
He didn't want
to put his family at risk.
203
00:13:55,275 --> 00:13:57,827
What I remember
is just us as a family,
204
00:13:57,931 --> 00:14:02,275
telling him that he needed
to keep going.
205
00:14:02,379 --> 00:14:06,275
A couple of days later,
my dad told Patrick Stein
206
00:14:06,379 --> 00:14:08,620
that he would be willing
to join his group.
207
00:14:10,758 --> 00:14:14,620
[Robin] The southwest region
of the Kansas Security Force
was led by Curtis Allen,
208
00:14:14,724 --> 00:14:18,103
and it was made up of about
a dozen individuals.
209
00:14:21,103 --> 00:14:26,586
[Alyssa]
The Kansas Security Force
met on nightly phone calls.
210
00:14:26,689 --> 00:14:29,551
We did give Dan a recorder,
211
00:14:29,655 --> 00:14:33,965
and he tried to record
the calls.
212
00:14:34,551 --> 00:14:37,310
[Alyssa] My dad would go
into his bedroom,
213
00:14:37,413 --> 00:14:41,482
and I would be able to hear
through the wall
214
00:14:41,586 --> 00:14:45,310
Curtis Allen and Gavin Wright,
as well as Patrick Stein,
215
00:14:45,413 --> 00:14:48,827
were definitely
the three most vocal.
216
00:14:56,068 --> 00:15:00,965
[Alyssa] It's unimaginable
seeing how much hate
217
00:15:01,068 --> 00:15:05,517
these people can hold
for an innocent group
of people
218
00:15:05,620 --> 00:15:11,448
that they've literally
never had anything to do with
other than hating them.
219
00:15:21,586 --> 00:15:24,689
[Tony] At this point,
the level of hatred
was a step above
220
00:15:24,793 --> 00:15:27,620
any of the other
militia folks
that we had been looking at.
221
00:15:28,965 --> 00:15:31,310
But they're still
just talking.
222
00:15:31,413 --> 00:15:34,689
And one of the concerns
that I had
with the investigation was:
223
00:15:34,793 --> 00:15:38,896
we're spending hundreds
of man-hours
investigating this group,
224
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,068
but will they ever
move beyond the talk?
225
00:15:44,068 --> 00:15:49,000
And then, in June of 2016,
everything in this
investigation changed.
226
00:15:49,103 --> 00:15:50,827
[radio chatter]
227
00:15:50,931 --> 00:15:53,206
[newsreader] Breaking news
in Orange County tonight.
228
00:15:53,310 --> 00:15:57,586
Confirmation of a shooting
in downtown Orlando
at the Pulse nightclub.
229
00:15:58,896 --> 00:16:00,310
Let me see your hands now!
230
00:16:00,413 --> 00:16:02,517
[gunshots firing]
231
00:16:02,620 --> 00:16:04,344
[man shouts]
232
00:16:06,620 --> 00:16:09,413
[newsreader] A lone gunman,
who in the middle
of that massacre,
233
00:16:09,517 --> 00:16:12,068
called 9-1-1
to pledge allegiance to ISIS.
234
00:16:14,896 --> 00:16:18,448
Stein reached out to Dan
after the Pulse
nightclub shooting.
235
00:16:18,551 --> 00:16:24,448
He was focused on reacting.
"We've gotta do something.
This is just too much."
236
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,310
[Robin] For him,
a switch had been flicked.
237
00:16:39,862 --> 00:16:43,413
He believed
that Kansas Security Force
needed to act,
238
00:16:43,517 --> 00:16:45,000
and they needed to act now.
239
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:52,034
Patrick specifically targeted
a location for the meeting
in a field,
240
00:16:52,137 --> 00:16:54,896
out east of Garden City
by quite aways.
241
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,758
Stein specifically said,
"We're gonna have this meeting
in a field
242
00:16:57,862 --> 00:17:00,689
so that the FBI
cannot record us."
243
00:17:00,793 --> 00:17:05,586
So I told Dan,
"Well, you need to be
a part of the meeting."
244
00:17:05,689 --> 00:17:10,241
We agreed that Dan
would have a recording device
on him
245
00:17:10,344 --> 00:17:13,862
because it seems
to be criminal in nature.
246
00:17:13,964 --> 00:17:16,586
[Robin] We knew
that this was gonna
be the inception
247
00:17:16,689 --> 00:17:18,068
of criminal activity
248
00:17:18,172 --> 00:17:21,689
and probably
a conspiracy to commit
that criminal activity.
249
00:17:21,792 --> 00:17:26,792
That is the essence
of what the FBI seeks
to define
250
00:17:26,896 --> 00:17:31,241
when you're gonna
charge someone in a plot.
We needed that.
251
00:17:34,275 --> 00:17:36,448
[Brandon]
It was a very hot day
that day.
252
00:17:36,551 --> 00:17:41,000
My dad was pretty anxious,
as well. Pretty nervous
wearing a wire.
253
00:17:42,965 --> 00:17:45,413
We had a surveillance team
that was in the area.
254
00:17:45,517 --> 00:17:49,965
But when I say in the area,
I mean they were within,
like, 20 miles.
255
00:17:50,068 --> 00:17:52,724
So Dan was ultimately
on his own.
256
00:17:56,896 --> 00:18:00,517
We had set up a plan
that he would
text me periodically
257
00:18:00,620 --> 00:18:02,413
to make sure that he was okay.
258
00:18:02,517 --> 00:18:06,586
He texted us when he arrived.
259
00:18:06,689 --> 00:18:10,068
And he texted me one time
during the meeting.
260
00:18:10,172 --> 00:18:12,758
And then
I didn't hear anything.
261
00:18:12,862 --> 00:18:15,068
I talked
to our surveillance guys.
262
00:18:15,172 --> 00:18:19,241
I said, "Hey, can you
see anything?"
263
00:18:19,344 --> 00:18:23,413
But where the meeting was,
there wasn't a way for them
to drive by and see anything.
264
00:18:24,068 --> 00:18:26,000
There's certainly an
"Oh, crap" moment,
265
00:18:26,103 --> 00:18:29,379
and the worst thought
was that somebody
had found out
266
00:18:29,482 --> 00:18:32,896
that he was working with us
and had killed him
because of it.
267
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:38,241
And I did nothing, right.
He's in the middle of a field
by himself dead,
268
00:18:38,344 --> 00:18:40,241
and I'm rolling up
on a dead body.
269
00:18:46,931 --> 00:18:50,793
The group was prone
to talking a lot.
270
00:18:50,896 --> 00:18:55,827
I had an expectation
that it was gonna be
probably a couple hours.
271
00:18:57,275 --> 00:18:59,862
But the longer
that I didn't hear from him...
272
00:18:59,965 --> 00:19:03,965
I got more and more concerned,
as the time clicked on.
273
00:19:04,068 --> 00:19:05,310
[monitor beeps]
274
00:19:05,413 --> 00:19:06,862
[Amy] About the time
that we're thinking,
275
00:19:06,965 --> 00:19:09,586
"Well, maybe we need
to do something"
276
00:19:09,689 --> 00:19:15,241
is when Dan reached out to me
and said, "I'm okay,
but I'm in the hospital."
277
00:19:17,344 --> 00:19:22,172
And I was like, "Wait,
you're in the hospital?
What... What happened?"
278
00:19:22,275 --> 00:19:26,172
Dan told me
that he got to the meeting.
279
00:19:26,275 --> 00:19:29,379
He wasn't feeling well,
but he still participated
280
00:19:29,482 --> 00:19:33,551
until eventually
he passed out
'cause he was dehydrated.
281
00:19:33,655 --> 00:19:37,068
As he was passing out,
his thoughts were,
282
00:19:37,172 --> 00:19:40,068
"Oh, they're gonna find
the recorder."
He was concerned.
283
00:19:40,172 --> 00:19:42,896
He didn't know
what would happen
once he passed out.
284
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,827
Ultimately, they called
an ambulance,
285
00:19:45,931 --> 00:19:49,482
and his recording device
was not discovered.
286
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,413
[Robin] We went directly
to the hospital.
287
00:19:55,517 --> 00:20:00,172
What we learned
was that we really did
need to be at this meeting.
288
00:20:00,275 --> 00:20:04,758
That Stein had flipped
a switch.
289
00:20:11,310 --> 00:20:14,206
That recording absolutely
gave us the foundation
290
00:20:14,310 --> 00:20:16,206
on which to build
a criminal case.
291
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,896
Some of the people
that were involved
in the meeting stepped back.
292
00:20:32,310 --> 00:20:34,517
[Tony] Most of the people
that believe in militias
293
00:20:34,620 --> 00:20:36,482
don't believe
in using the militias
294
00:20:36,586 --> 00:20:39,448
to go out and target people
because of their
religious beliefs.
295
00:20:42,413 --> 00:20:45,310
There became a core group
of four individuals:
296
00:20:45,413 --> 00:20:49,000
Patrick Stein, Gavin Wright,
297
00:20:49,103 --> 00:20:52,172
Curtis Allen, and Dan Day.
298
00:20:52,275 --> 00:20:56,068
Gavin Wright had lived
in the Garden City community
299
00:20:56,172 --> 00:20:59,586
for pretty much
most of his life.
He was an electrician.
300
00:20:59,689 --> 00:21:02,413
Curtis Allen had served
in the military.
301
00:21:02,517 --> 00:21:04,896
He was a lieutenant
in the army.
302
00:21:06,068 --> 00:21:08,965
[Alyssa] Even though
they were from the area,
303
00:21:09,068 --> 00:21:11,896
their isolation was definitely
a bond for them
304
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:16,689
because they all
were able to blame
what was happening to them
305
00:21:16,793 --> 00:21:19,034
on Muslims.
306
00:21:19,827 --> 00:21:22,482
[Brandon] After the meeting
where my dad passed out,
307
00:21:22,586 --> 00:21:24,896
they established
their own channel
308
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,620
to talk together on,
which they named
crusaders 2.0.
309
00:21:30,724 --> 00:21:33,724
In Patrick's mind,
the first Crusades
didn't go far enough.
310
00:21:33,827 --> 00:21:36,103
He wanted to have
a second set of Crusades
311
00:21:36,206 --> 00:21:39,551
where they would
completely exterminate
all the Muslims.
312
00:21:42,379 --> 00:21:47,137
So this new core group
met in August of 2016.
313
00:21:47,241 --> 00:21:51,448
And they decided
that they needed
to pick a target.
314
00:21:51,551 --> 00:21:54,724
And ultimately, the target
that was decided upon
315
00:21:54,827 --> 00:21:59,965
were the apartments
on Mary Street in Garden City.
316
00:22:14,551 --> 00:22:17,551
[Amy] The people
that were living
in the Mary Street apartments-
317
00:22:17,655 --> 00:22:19,275
most of the were Somalis.
318
00:22:19,379 --> 00:22:22,827
And also, there was a mosque
in the Mary Street apartments.
319
00:22:22,931 --> 00:22:26,862
So they believed
that that was ideal.
320
00:22:26,965 --> 00:22:29,103
They could kill
a bunch of Muslims
321
00:22:29,206 --> 00:22:31,896
and do it while they
were praying to their god.
322
00:22:48,103 --> 00:22:50,103
[Abdirahman]
We really didn't know
anything about it
323
00:22:50,206 --> 00:22:52,172
because we were just
doing our daily life.
324
00:22:53,379 --> 00:22:55,827
We just work, go home, eat.
That's it.
325
00:22:55,931 --> 00:22:59,724
And we don't bother anybody,
so why would someone think
326
00:22:59,827 --> 00:23:04,344
that we have done something
to hurt their loved ones
or anything?
327
00:23:05,862 --> 00:23:10,517
The irony is that most
of the Somali people here
328
00:23:10,620 --> 00:23:16,241
flew from the gun violence
and from ISIS,
from all that stuff.
329
00:23:16,344 --> 00:23:19,034
So it's crazy that people
think us-
330
00:23:19,137 --> 00:23:22,586
we're connected to ISIS
or anything.
331
00:23:24,655 --> 00:23:27,275
[Tony]
Over the next several months,
it became very clear
332
00:23:27,379 --> 00:23:30,034
that they wanted
to use explosives.
333
00:23:30,137 --> 00:23:34,206
They wanted to focus
on the Mary Street
apartment complex.
334
00:23:34,310 --> 00:23:36,275
And they wanted
to commit the attack
335
00:23:36,379 --> 00:23:39,275
immediately after the election
336
00:23:39,379 --> 00:23:44,206
because they didn't want
their actions to, in any way,
swing the election.
337
00:23:45,413 --> 00:23:51,275
Patrick Stein, by virtue
of his working with his family
farming operation,
338
00:23:51,379 --> 00:23:57,206
had access
to fertilizer products.
Ready access, in quantity.
339
00:23:57,310 --> 00:23:59,034
And that gave him
the opportunity
340
00:23:59,137 --> 00:24:04,000
to then think in terms
of building a much larger
explosive device.
341
00:24:10,965 --> 00:24:15,448
[Alyssa] That's about the time
that my dad started jumping up
342
00:24:15,551 --> 00:24:20,275
dead asleep because he thought
he was tackling someone
343
00:24:20,379 --> 00:24:24,000
or running away.
344
00:24:24,103 --> 00:24:29,482
One of the most reoccurring
nightmares was that
he had failed.
345
00:24:29,586 --> 00:24:33,689
And he would see
a Somalian woman
346
00:24:33,793 --> 00:24:36,793
and her little girl
turn around,
347
00:24:36,896 --> 00:24:40,137
and their faces
would be blown off.
348
00:24:43,724 --> 00:24:47,448
[Tony] Late September of 2016.
349
00:24:47,551 --> 00:24:51,172
The election is November
of 2016.
350
00:24:51,275 --> 00:24:55,689
Curtis and Gavin announced
to Patrick and Dan
351
00:24:55,793 --> 00:24:58,448
that they've created
a primary explosive
352
00:24:58,551 --> 00:25:02,586
that can detonate
a very large bomb
and kill a lot of people.
353
00:25:15,275 --> 00:25:17,655
Candidly, that was our,
"Oh, [bleep]" moment.
354
00:25:17,758 --> 00:25:20,172
That's the point at which
I started losing sleep
at night
355
00:25:20,275 --> 00:25:24,241
because we know now
these guys absolutely
can detonate
356
00:25:24,344 --> 00:25:26,137
an ANFO bomb on their own.
357
00:25:27,862 --> 00:25:31,551
We now have to be
on top of this every minute
of every day
358
00:25:31,655 --> 00:25:34,793
until we put these guys
in custody.
359
00:25:36,310 --> 00:25:38,206
[Tony] Investigations 101 is:
360
00:25:38,310 --> 00:25:41,482
at some point, you replace
that informant
with an undercover.
361
00:25:41,586 --> 00:25:45,206
That's something
that we had been considering
for many, many months.
362
00:25:47,241 --> 00:25:48,482
[Amy] In the course
of our investigation,
363
00:25:48,586 --> 00:25:52,724
Dan had brought up
to these guys
that he had family members
364
00:25:52,827 --> 00:25:56,827
that were involved
in criminal activity.
365
00:25:56,931 --> 00:25:59,241
And it was a perfect segue
for Dan to say,
366
00:25:59,344 --> 00:26:02,551
"Well, actually, you remember
I told you I had a cousin?
367
00:26:02,655 --> 00:26:07,172
He actually works
for, pretty much,
an organization."
368
00:26:07,275 --> 00:26:12,793
[Amy] So the undercover
was presented as a guy
that could get stuff
369
00:26:12,896 --> 00:26:15,896
and had a lot of knowledge
about explosives.
370
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,896
[Amy] The plan was to get
Patrick Stein,
371
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:24,310
Curtis Allen, and Gavin Wright
to meet with our undercover
372
00:26:24,413 --> 00:26:28,241
to get him to create
the explosive device for them.
373
00:26:28,344 --> 00:26:33,275
The control at this point
in the investigation
was no longer just desirous.
374
00:26:33,379 --> 00:26:35,310
It was a must.
375
00:26:35,413 --> 00:26:39,448
Ultimately, our goal
was to reduce the risk
376
00:26:39,551 --> 00:26:43,103
of them making their own
explosive device.
377
00:26:44,655 --> 00:26:46,724
[Amy]
Curtis was very untrusting.
378
00:26:46,827 --> 00:26:50,517
There was this concern
that this was a setup.
379
00:26:54,172 --> 00:26:55,724
[Curtis] I understand.
380
00:27:01,586 --> 00:27:03,827
The worst case scenario
is they don't meet
the undercover,
381
00:27:03,931 --> 00:27:06,551
they no longer trust Dan
and cut him
out of the picture.
382
00:27:06,655 --> 00:27:09,000
And then they choose
to go forward
with making an explosive,
383
00:27:09,103 --> 00:27:11,379
and we don't know
what their plan is.
384
00:27:18,068 --> 00:27:20,068
[Amy]
The result of the meeting
385
00:27:20,172 --> 00:27:23,103
was the crusaders
militia members agreed
386
00:27:23,206 --> 00:27:26,724
that Stein would go meet
with the undercover
as sort of a representative,
387
00:27:26,827 --> 00:27:28,827
but the others would not.
388
00:27:35,482 --> 00:27:37,310
The crusaders
came up with a list
389
00:27:37,413 --> 00:27:41,793
that, potentially,
the undercover
might be able to get for them.
390
00:27:41,896 --> 00:27:47,586
And included
on the shopping list was C-4
and blasting caps.
391
00:27:47,689 --> 00:27:50,655
They were confident
that they could do it
on their own,
392
00:27:50,758 --> 00:27:54,310
but it was quicker
if they could get it
from somebody else.
393
00:27:55,896 --> 00:27:59,206
It was definitely one
of those realization moments
394
00:27:59,310 --> 00:28:02,137
of there are a lot of things
that could go wrong.
395
00:28:02,241 --> 00:28:04,551
It's not a comfortable
feeling, certainly.
396
00:28:04,655 --> 00:28:08,241
I mean, we're dealing
with Patrick Stein,
who was a volatile person.
397
00:28:11,103 --> 00:28:16,551
We had Dan drive
into a rural area,
and Stein followed him in.
398
00:28:16,655 --> 00:28:19,517
The main undercover, Brian,
399
00:28:19,620 --> 00:28:23,000
had a crew of individuals
that worked for him.
400
00:28:24,758 --> 00:28:29,448
Dan introduced Stein,
and then Dan left,
401
00:28:29,551 --> 00:28:32,620
and Stein met with Brian
inside one of the vehicles.
402
00:28:57,137 --> 00:28:58,241
[Patrick] Sure.
403
00:29:10,724 --> 00:29:13,689
At the end of the meeting,
Brian left it with,
404
00:29:13,793 --> 00:29:17,758
"I'll think about it
and decide whether I want
to help you guys out."
405
00:29:19,310 --> 00:29:22,758
So a couple of days
after the original
undercover meeting,
406
00:29:22,862 --> 00:29:25,344
Brian reaches out
to Patrick Stein and says,
407
00:29:25,448 --> 00:29:27,448
"Hey, I'm the guy
from the field.
408
00:29:27,551 --> 00:29:30,068
I'm gonna help you
'cause I like
what you stand for."
409
00:29:35,137 --> 00:29:38,862
Stein went back
to the crusaders.
They had a meeting.
410
00:29:38,965 --> 00:29:42,034
[Robin] Ultimately, what they
decided upon
411
00:29:42,137 --> 00:29:45,034
was for Patrick Stein
to go back
and meet with Brian.
412
00:29:45,137 --> 00:29:51,103
And the plan was for Stein
to drive Brian
by the apartment buildings
413
00:29:51,206 --> 00:29:56,655
and to talk to him
about what specifically
the crusaders group wanted.
414
00:29:57,379 --> 00:29:59,758
This second meeting
is incredibly important
415
00:29:59,862 --> 00:30:01,448
to the development
of the case.
416
00:30:03,206 --> 00:30:06,689
We had a good amount
of evidence,
but we needed more.
417
00:30:06,793 --> 00:30:08,241
We wanted agreement
from Patrick
418
00:30:08,344 --> 00:30:14,206
that he's going to provide
the raw materials
for the device to Brian
419
00:30:14,310 --> 00:30:18,379
so that Brian can finish
the device and hand
a dummy device,
420
00:30:18,482 --> 00:30:21,103
but a completed device,
back to Patrick.
421
00:30:24,482 --> 00:30:27,793
So we're fairly comfortable
with where we're at.
422
00:30:27,896 --> 00:30:30,862
And then all of a sudden,
we get a phone call.
423
00:30:30,965 --> 00:30:36,517
The day before the meeting
between Brian and Stein
was supposed to happen,
424
00:30:36,620 --> 00:30:40,620
Curtis Allen's girlfriend
called 9-1-1
425
00:30:40,724 --> 00:30:46,068
and said that Curtis Allen
had intentionally not allowed
her to leave her apartment
426
00:30:46,172 --> 00:30:50,482
and had grabbed her,
and she was concerned
for her safety.
427
00:30:53,241 --> 00:30:58,379
During the arrest,
Curtis' girlfriend
had mentioned
428
00:30:58,482 --> 00:30:59,862
that Curtis was part
of a militia
429
00:30:59,965 --> 00:31:02,137
and that he had been
making explosives.
430
00:31:03,758 --> 00:31:05,862
It was one of those
"Oh, crap" moments.
431
00:31:05,965 --> 00:31:10,344
Like, we were moving
in a very organized fashion,
432
00:31:10,448 --> 00:31:13,655
and then that threw
a wrench in the plans,
and you're like,
433
00:31:13,758 --> 00:31:16,827
"What do we do?"
434
00:31:20,586 --> 00:31:22,758
We don't know what impact
this is gonna have
on the others.
435
00:31:22,862 --> 00:31:24,482
We don't know whether
it's gonna make them scatter,
436
00:31:24,586 --> 00:31:27,068
or whether it's gonna
make them more resolute
437
00:31:27,172 --> 00:31:29,172
to move up the timeframe
of the attack.
438
00:31:33,034 --> 00:31:35,965
We had to work
with the local authorities.
439
00:31:36,068 --> 00:31:40,068
They called the FBI and said,
"Hey, we have something
that we can't deal with
440
00:31:40,172 --> 00:31:41,724
we need your help with."
441
00:31:43,931 --> 00:31:46,862
We had to try to keep a lid
on the information.
442
00:31:46,965 --> 00:31:49,965
And we had to try to keep it
from getting disseminated
too widely,
443
00:31:50,068 --> 00:31:53,758
which, in a rural community
like that, is very,
very difficult to do
444
00:31:53,862 --> 00:31:57,310
just because everybody's
related, everybody's friends.
445
00:31:58,379 --> 00:32:01,689
We asked the local authorities
who had arrested Curtis
446
00:32:01,793 --> 00:32:05,344
to not let him have contact
with anybody
outside of the jail
447
00:32:05,448 --> 00:32:08,241
so that he couldn't
spread word
of what was going on.
448
00:32:11,034 --> 00:32:14,655
[Brandon]
The FBI wanted my dad
to make absolutely certain
449
00:32:14,758 --> 00:32:18,758
that he knew how this
was affecting Gavin Wright
and Patrick Stein,
450
00:32:18,862 --> 00:32:22,000
especially because they're...
You know, they're the
unhinged ones.
451
00:32:22,103 --> 00:32:25,482
They're the ones
that are willing to go off
and murder someone.
452
00:32:27,172 --> 00:32:28,827
[Amy]
It was the craziest time,
I would say,
453
00:32:28,931 --> 00:32:30,275
in the investigation.
454
00:32:30,379 --> 00:32:34,103
Is Gavin gonna flee?
Is Stein gonna do something
on his own?
455
00:32:35,413 --> 00:32:39,379
I am feverishly having
conversation
after conversation
456
00:32:39,482 --> 00:32:42,965
with our leadership
and our prosecutors.
457
00:32:43,068 --> 00:32:44,551
Obviously, the plan
has changed.
458
00:32:44,655 --> 00:32:47,655
"Are we gonna go forward
with the undercover meeting
tomorrow?"
459
00:32:47,758 --> 00:32:50,793
Everybody agrees.
"Yes, we think we can do that
safely," so that's on.
460
00:32:50,896 --> 00:32:53,758
[Amy] The plan was for Stein
461
00:32:53,862 --> 00:32:58,310
to drive Brian
by the apartment buildings
462
00:32:58,413 --> 00:33:00,034
and elaborate on the plan
463
00:33:00,137 --> 00:33:05,275
and what specifically
the crusaders group wanted.
464
00:33:05,379 --> 00:33:08,000
[Tony] I believed
that there was no way
465
00:33:08,103 --> 00:33:10,275
Patrick Stein
was gonna show up
for that next meeting.
466
00:33:10,379 --> 00:33:13,137
I believed he was gonna
have been completely
spooked off
467
00:33:13,241 --> 00:33:15,724
and the case
was gonna fall apart.
468
00:33:20,344 --> 00:33:22,655
[Robin] The morning
of the second
undercover meeting,
469
00:33:22,758 --> 00:33:24,862
we're getting ready
to follow our plan
470
00:33:24,965 --> 00:33:26,965
and set up, prepared,
for that meeting
471
00:33:27,068 --> 00:33:30,172
as if Stein would arrive
just as we expected.
472
00:33:31,413 --> 00:33:33,379
We all knew
that this was a wild card.
473
00:33:35,379 --> 00:33:37,724
When he turned up,
I couldn't believe it.
474
00:33:39,068 --> 00:33:42,310
But we didn't really have time
to feel relief
475
00:33:42,413 --> 00:33:45,620
because now we just
have the job ahead of us
that we needed to do.
476
00:33:53,413 --> 00:33:55,931
Patrick hopped in
with the undercovers,
477
00:33:56,034 --> 00:33:58,793
showed them
around Garden City.
478
00:34:13,379 --> 00:34:15,034
[Patrick laughs]
479
00:34:25,413 --> 00:34:29,000
[laughter]
480
00:34:29,103 --> 00:34:33,000
[Robin] It was really
just kind of
an encapsulated moment
481
00:34:33,103 --> 00:34:36,413
that these men
were very serious
and intending harm.
482
00:34:42,137 --> 00:34:45,862
[Tony] We went,
in the span of a few minutes,
483
00:34:45,965 --> 00:34:50,862
from thinking that our case
was going to crumble
and fall apart around us
484
00:34:50,965 --> 00:34:54,793
to absolutely making our case.
485
00:34:54,896 --> 00:34:56,172
I mean, it was euphoric.
486
00:34:57,275 --> 00:35:01,344
[Amy] After the meeting,
we worked through the night,
487
00:35:01,448 --> 00:35:06,586
preparing search warrants
and trying to establish
what the next moves were.
488
00:35:06,689 --> 00:35:11,241
[Robin]
We had people in play
that had access to explosives.
489
00:35:11,344 --> 00:35:15,000
We needed to arrest
these individuals immediately.
490
00:35:22,931 --> 00:35:25,965
The morning of the takedown,
there were a lot of nerves.
491
00:35:26,068 --> 00:35:29,482
The most important thing
was making sure
that everybody was safe
492
00:35:29,586 --> 00:35:31,517
because there were a lot
of moving parts.
493
00:35:31,620 --> 00:35:33,931
Ultimately, we made the choice
to arrest Patrick Stein
494
00:35:34,034 --> 00:35:35,379
in a parking lot
at a restaurant.
495
00:35:35,482 --> 00:35:41,172
The plan was for Stein
to bring fertilizer
496
00:35:41,275 --> 00:35:45,551
to Brian, our undercover,
to make a bomb.
497
00:35:45,655 --> 00:35:50,275
And then we were going
to go ahead and do a takedown
of Patrick Stein.
498
00:35:52,655 --> 00:35:56,827
Brian and two or three
other undercovers were waiting
in the parking lot
499
00:35:56,931 --> 00:35:59,241
for Stein to pull in.
500
00:36:01,724 --> 00:36:06,758
When Stein came in,
they unloaded the fertilizer
from his pickup
501
00:36:06,862 --> 00:36:08,241
to the undercover vehicle.
502
00:36:19,275 --> 00:36:20,586
[Brian] Mmm-hmm.
503
00:36:22,620 --> 00:36:25,344
[Amy] There was
a predetermined phrase
that Brian said,
504
00:36:25,448 --> 00:36:28,689
and that's when the SWAT team
moved in,
505
00:36:28,793 --> 00:36:31,724
and they arrested Stein,
and they arrested Brian.
506
00:36:31,827 --> 00:36:36,275
[man] The hell, man?
What [bleep] is this?
507
00:36:38,724 --> 00:36:43,517
[Tony]
It was an indescribably
immense feeling of relief
508
00:36:43,620 --> 00:36:45,275
to know that Patrick
had been arrested
509
00:36:45,379 --> 00:36:49,172
and then a few minutes later,
to hear that Gavin
had been arrested.
510
00:36:49,275 --> 00:36:53,068
We don't need to worry
about them blowing people up.
511
00:36:53,172 --> 00:36:57,413
Now I know that the danger
has passed.
512
00:36:59,793 --> 00:37:01,482
[Alyssa] When we heard
about the takedown,
513
00:37:01,586 --> 00:37:05,655
there was definitely
a moment of celebration,
514
00:37:05,758 --> 00:37:08,482
but it didn't last long.
515
00:37:08,586 --> 00:37:10,482
We were very scared
of retribution.
516
00:37:10,586 --> 00:37:14,689
Pretty quickly after that,
we got a pit bull. We got...
517
00:37:14,793 --> 00:37:18,827
We started being
a lot more cautious.
518
00:37:19,965 --> 00:37:21,620
[FBI representative]
Three southwest-Kansas men:
519
00:37:21,724 --> 00:37:24,689
Curtis Allen, Patrick Stein,
Gavin Wright
520
00:37:24,793 --> 00:37:28,862
were charged in federal court
here today
on domestic terrorism charges.
521
00:37:28,965 --> 00:37:32,896
These charges are based
on eight months
of investigation by the FBI.
522
00:37:35,448 --> 00:37:37,689
[Robin]
The Somali community
was very shocked.
523
00:37:39,137 --> 00:37:43,655
It was not just a gut punch
but maybe a double gut punch.
524
00:37:45,413 --> 00:37:47,172
[Abdirahman]
Some of the community
were angry,
525
00:37:47,275 --> 00:37:49,862
but more of them
were heartbroken and tears.
526
00:37:49,965 --> 00:37:56,103
And just having that thought-
someone wanted
to take our lives
527
00:37:56,206 --> 00:37:57,862
was just overwhelming.
528
00:37:57,965 --> 00:38:01,586
It really changed it
in the community,
to be honest
529
00:38:01,689 --> 00:38:04,758
because a lot of people moved.
530
00:38:08,793 --> 00:38:12,620
There was a lot of talk
about what would have been.
531
00:38:12,724 --> 00:38:16,793
As we prepared for trial,
one of the things
that I asked the agents to do
532
00:38:16,896 --> 00:38:19,724
was to create a device
533
00:38:19,827 --> 00:38:23,689
of the size
that these guys wanted to use
534
00:38:23,793 --> 00:38:27,068
so that we could show
what the damage
would have been.
535
00:38:33,689 --> 00:38:36,655
If that bomb
had successfully detonated,
536
00:38:36,758 --> 00:38:41,482
we would have been staring
over the edge
of a smoking black hole
537
00:38:41,586 --> 00:38:45,517
that used to be
the 312 west Mary Street
apartment complex.
538
00:38:45,620 --> 00:38:48,413
And we would unquestionably
have been looking
at the bodies
539
00:38:48,517 --> 00:38:52,206
of more than 100 dead refugees
in that hole.
540
00:38:53,517 --> 00:38:58,862
I have no doubt in my mind
that the FBI
investigation here
541
00:38:58,965 --> 00:39:02,206
prevented another
Oklahoma City.
542
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,137
All three of them were charged
with attempted use of a weapon
of mass destruction,
543
00:39:08,241 --> 00:39:11,275
conspiracy to commit
a hate crime.
544
00:39:11,379 --> 00:39:14,689
And all three of them
were convicted
of those charges.
545
00:39:14,793 --> 00:39:16,965
Curtis Allen received
25 years,
546
00:39:17,068 --> 00:39:19,448
Gavin Wright received
26 years,
547
00:39:19,551 --> 00:39:22,310
and Patrick Stein received
a 30-year-sentence.
548
00:39:24,482 --> 00:39:27,275
[Robin]
When it comes
to the investigation,
549
00:39:27,379 --> 00:39:29,000
there's really only one hero.
550
00:39:29,896 --> 00:39:31,379
That hero is Dan Day.
551
00:39:32,758 --> 00:39:35,206
All he really wanted
was to make sure
552
00:39:35,310 --> 00:39:40,172
that his town
and the people in it
were safe.
553
00:39:45,103 --> 00:39:47,137
[Amy] We could not
have done this case
without Dan Day.
554
00:39:47,241 --> 00:39:51,379
And it was the epitome
of doing the right thing,
555
00:39:51,482 --> 00:39:55,724
even though it may
be a detriment to you.
556
00:39:58,103 --> 00:40:03,068
My dad isn't here
to tell this story
because he passed away
557
00:40:03,172 --> 00:40:06,379
[sniffs] a couple months ago.
558
00:40:08,482 --> 00:40:09,965
[Brandon] It was probably
heart related.
559
00:40:10,068 --> 00:40:12,724
At least in part
because of the depression
and stuff
560
00:40:12,827 --> 00:40:14,620
that going through all this
caused.
561
00:40:15,655 --> 00:40:20,448
Every part of what made him
him made him a hero.
562
00:40:20,551 --> 00:40:23,758
His faith and determination
563
00:40:23,862 --> 00:40:27,965
and going through
all of this pain
564
00:40:28,068 --> 00:40:32,241
to save people
that he didn't know.
565
00:40:32,344 --> 00:40:38,275
But saving these people
was worth putting himself
on the line.
566
00:40:40,862 --> 00:40:45,620
[Abdirahman] For a person
just to do that to make us
walk freely,
567
00:40:45,724 --> 00:40:47,793
there is no word
to describe that
for that emotion.
568
00:40:47,896 --> 00:40:51,172
But hey, I gotta say,
we're really grateful
to you, man.
569
00:40:53,931 --> 00:40:58,000
[Amy] What makes me
most pleased is the fact
that we were successful.
570
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,068
We found out about a plot.
571
00:41:02,172 --> 00:41:06,310
There were people
that were trying
to kill innocents,
572
00:41:06,413 --> 00:41:09,034
and we were able to keep that
from happening.
573
00:41:09,137 --> 00:41:12,551
So to me, that is success.
574
00:41:21,034 --> 00:41:24,655
She liked the money.
She liked the rush.
575
00:41:24,758 --> 00:41:28,379
She went into the stores and
held a gun to people's heads.
576
00:41:28,482 --> 00:41:29,620
Looking at her,
577
00:41:29,724 --> 00:41:31,241
you would not think she would
do something like that.
578
00:41:31,344 --> 00:41:33,689
Six robberies in five states.
579
00:41:33,793 --> 00:41:35,275
Where would she be going next?
