Flynn’s November 1997 article, entitled “Who Painted The Phony Trail Of Guilt,” announced that skinhead leader Johnny Bangerter believed authorities were trying to frame him in the Oklahoma City bombing and, as it turned out, a trail of fabricated evidence “led to Johnny Bangerter’s front door,” which indicated that indeed, “someone” had tried to frame him. Still, the question of who and why remained. At the time, Bangerter was sure the records were just one in a long line of attempts to set him up that had begun after Ruby Ridge. Flynn quoted Reyna who said, “I don’t blame (Johnny) for thinking the feds did it … someone got his actual records.… Whoever did this did a good job. It was too authentic.”67

In the months to come, the Jones Team learned that the government was actively conducting investigations in the St. George area, investigations they suspected related to Bangerter and his group. They couldn’t be sure though, because despite Judge Matsch’s orders that the Feds turn over information about their St. George probe, they refused to do so. In addition, they learned that the FBI had questioned Coffman about McVeigh’s many phone calls but Coffman denied having ever spoken to McVeigh, saying that a man named Tuttle had left a message on the National Alliance answering machine, but they had never spoken in person. The FBI was seemingly content with this, despite the fact that Coffman misrepresented the number of calls and refused their request to take a polygraph. They never asked him about Fortier or about Bangerter’s claims that Coffman had tried to connect him with “Tim.”

The government had never really needed to question Bangerter about anything, because a handful of federal informants had been reporting on his activities for quite some time. Sounding very reminiscent of PATCON operations as well as the ATF operation involving John Brinar, is an account written by former ATF agent Jay Dobyns, in his internet blog. Dobyns explains how, during the 1990’s, he and his partners were conducting undercover investigations of extremists in the Las Vegas area. This involved “buying machine guns, sawed off shotguns, homemade nitroglycerin.” Eventually they moved on to more “high profile target[s]” including Patriot Movement spokesperson Bo Gritz and “befriended ‘all-stars’ of the movement like Johnny Bangerter.” In fact, Dobyns wrote that he and his partner even “trained with Bangerter and the members of his Army of Israel.” When they got close to the real “shotcallers” however, they were instructed to “disengage the target” and end their investigations, an order Dobyns says originated with the “White House or CIA.”68

Meanwhile, the ATF had an active plan to raid Elohim City, primarily based on information provided by an informant who told of all manner of violent plots brewing there, one of which was the bombing of a federal building (the Murrah being one potential target she named). In preparation for the raid, the ATF requested the assistance of the INS, as one of the men they planned to arrest was illegal alien Andy Strassmeir.
