RUBY RIDGE SNIPER TAKES THE FIFTH

Lon Horiuchi, the FBI sniper who shot and killed Randy Weaver's wife during a1992 Ruby Ridge shootout, took the Fifth Amendment today behind closed doors at the Senate. "There will be a lot more Fifth Amendment-taking to come," reports Elaine Shannon at the hearings. "Very soon, we will see a parade of some of the most respected FBI officials in the country doing the exactly same thing." Five FBI officials, including former deputy director Larry Potts, are under suspension amid federal criminal investigations concerning Ruby Ridge. Horiuchi, the sharpshooter, is facing potential criminal charges in Idaho.
