So Saturday morning, I went to see the Clint Eastwood Directed film, Richard Jewell. I thought it was pretty good. It did a great job of portraying a man that was falsely accused by the FBI as being the Atlanta Olympic Park bomber and how he was unmercifully hounded by the press.
I remember following the Atlanta bombing coverage since it was only a year after the OKC bombing. I was curious if there was any link to Timothy McVeigh & Terry Nichols, but I never heard anything after they focused their investigation on Richard Jewell.
The film still leaves some serious questions for me. Why was his name leaked to the press when they had ZERO physical evidence linking him to the crime? And later, how were they able to get search warrants for his residence without any physical evidence linking him to the crime?
