Then and there, McDougal filled out a blank stock-transfer certificate and told Susan to take it over to Hillary so she could review and sign it. That afternoon, Susan dropped in at the Rose firm. She was in buoyant spirits, relieved that she and her husband could stop worrying about the Clintons. She sat down across from Hillary at her desk, thinking how she might brighten up the office if it was hers, as Hillary read the proposed transfer of ownership. "What is this?"

...Kansas, where he allegedly rented the Ryder truck that carried the bomb, and then to Oklahoma City, where eyewitnesses saw him on the morning of the explosion?
