According to All-American Monster, a biography of McVeigh by a local newspaper reporter named Brandon Stickney, McVeigh's parents were often absent--his father worked nights and his mother led an active social life in the bars and bowling alleys of the area. When McVeigh was 18, his parents divorced and his mother moved to Florida. High school records obtained by TIME indicate that McVeigh...
