Ruby Ridge: The Killing of Vicki Weaver

Ruby Ridge was the location of an eleven-day siege by the U.S. Federal Government in 1992 in Boundary County, Idaho. It began August 21, when deputies of the US Marshals Service attempted to serve a bench warrant for failure to appear on federal firearms charges. The warrant was for the arrest of one Randy Weaver, an American survivalist, white separatist, and former U.S. Army Green Beret.
