bomb components, which enabled them to build a replica. this one was triggered by a timer. this bomb was clearly larger and more powerful than the first. there were a lot of differences there, which leaves you with two alternatives. either they re experimenting, graduating up to bigger and better things. the other alternative is that it was two separate people that made these devices. to find out, forensic examiners looked at the wire from the second bomb site. was this the same signature wire used in the first bomb? it was a silver-coated, single strand copper wire with blue insulation. it was 30-gauge, very small wire. but was it the same wire? atf examiner greg klees examined the extrusion marks made on the
kinds of things that you could use to make pipe bombs. the circumstantial evidence would indicate that he intended to kill himself to avoid having to talk to the police. next to white s body was his german shepherd dog. it matched the description of the dog given by the witness near the first bomb site. he was obviously clutching the bomb close to his body, and he had his one friend in the world there with him, his other arm around his dog. also in the garage, investigators found blue silver-coated wire, the kind used in the two church bombings. they also found a pair of wire cutters. scientists compared the tool
marks from white s wire cutters to the tool marks on the copper wire found at the danville bomb site. from that comparison, i was able to conclude that these wire cutters, they recovered in rick white s garage was the same cutter found in the danville device. this was forensic proof that white was the bomber. we found an area of the garage that had red spray paint on it and contained on that red spray paint were perfectly round circles. the reason that was important was the device that killed mr. plower, which was a pipe bomb with end caps on it, those end caps were painted red with a gold coating. but questions remained. why did rick white target churches? investigators believe white was
