Sources familiar with the defense say the exclusion of Howe was the worst blow. In 1994, while living in Elohim City, Okla., a redoubt of white supremacists, Howe became an informant for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. She made about 70 reports to her ATF contacts, which Howe's lawyer turned over to the defense. Sources say the reports discuss five men who traveled frequently to Oklahoma City to inspect the Murrah building. In an internal ATF memo written in April 1995 and obtained by Time, Howe told her supervisors that Elohim City leaders talked to her about...

Forget about sheep: cloning is as old as mankind--according to the Raelian Movement, which claims 35,000 members. Raelians believe extraterrestrials called Elohim cloned humans and in 1973 contacted Rael, a Frenchman whose mother was inseminated by aliens. Rael now teaches a sensual technique designed to inspire awareness of infinity. Raelians hope to build an embassy in Jerusalem to signal humanity's readiness to welcome the Elohim...

Government sources say that Howe's tapes didn't even provide evidence for busting Strassmeir or Mahon on weapons charges. In autumn 1994, Howe invited Strassmeir and other Elohim residents to her apartment in Tulsa. She asked them to paint three unarmed grenades orange and green like Halloween pumpkins. They obliged. But when she asked them to help her arm the grenades, they refused, as Mahon says he later did too. "I knew she was bent," he says. "She was the one always talking about killing and bombing," in an attempt, he contends, to entrap others at the compound...

...Elohim City "Grandpa" Millar deplores the entire episode, saying it is another opportunity for the media to besmirch Christian Identity. The settlement has been declared off limits to the press. But speaking from the front seat of the Lincoln parked in the rain-drenched gravel of a country-store parking lot near the settlement, Millar says he would welcome Howe back.

Cole/Tulsa and Elaine Shannon/Washington
