Module 2 - Case THE THREAT OF FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC TERRORISM Assignment Overview The Threat of Domestic or “Homegrown” Terrorism
A major terrorist attack conducted by a U.S. citizen against the Homeland was the bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, OK, on April 19, 1995. Watch Oklahoma City Bombing Animation to see the bombing in action (this silent video is over 2 minutes).
This attack, perpetrated by U.S. Army veteran Timothy McVeigh, killed 168 persons, injured more than 680, and caused the destruction of the Federal Building and destroyed or damaged more buildings. The financial impact of the bombing itself has been estimated to be at least $652 million.
In the days and months that followed, numerous investigations sought to determine who perpetrated the attack and if McVeigh has any links to domestic and/or foreign terrorist groups.
Other investigations examined how McVeigh was able to build the massive bomb used in the attack, to include the materials used, and how he was able to obtain them without alerting authorities. These questions have largely been answered and today there is a great deal of publicly available information that makes it possible to understand this act of domestic terrorism and its impact on Homeland Security.
Case Assignment In this Case, your task is to:
Define the methods used by Timothy McVeigh to conduct his attacks, the results of the bombing, his motivation(s), and how he was able to conduct his attack against the Murrah Federal Building without detection by the FBI or other domestic law enforcement organizations. From your reading, How Government Agencies Fight Terrorism (2017), briefly discuss which federal agencies are most directly responsible for ensuring that such a domestic terrorism attack does not occur in the future. Remember to include more than one source in your References. Assignment Expectations Assignments should be at least 3 full pages double-spaced, not counting the cover or reference page.

During Week 3, you will be asked to submit an academic research paper in response to the following statement: Recent Supreme Court rulings have served to redefine our original concepts of our Fourth Amendment freedom from unreasonable searches. You may view these rulings as either a tool to hamstring law enforcement and make it more difficult to enforce criminal laws OR an essential tool for the judiciary to secure fundamental liberties and to protect the public from overzealous police practices.
Defend your position on the issue above using your findings from interviews of at least two law enforcement or legal professionals (preferably one of each) and compile your findings in a paper which will utilize at least three (3) academic resources, aside from your assigned readings.
This week’s assignment is to begin conducting interviews which will serve as a foundation for your paper.
