we wouldn't have a ruby ridge or waco standoff in which he would be killed.so we had to develop a plan. in my estimation, the plan was pretty simple. he had to come out some time. all the time i was up there, he wasn't coming out. he was staying in close proximity to the cabin. the plan had been to wait for him to come out and go to town to get provisions, supplies or what have you. as he pedalled his bike into town on a gravel road, we would zoom in and pounce on him and take him into custody. well, we couldn't do that because of the demands of some people in the media who threatened to take it to a program that in the near future -- we didn't know if he had capability of monitoring the program. we found out he had a radio in there, a battery operated radio. it was to develop a plan to get him out of the cabin safely. in developing this source, we discussed that possibility. i was quite confident that we could trick him into coming out of the cabin without him knowing who we were and why we were there. if he got close enough to one of the three of us that ap
