Randy Weaver

Who is Randy Weaver?

Randall Claude "Randy" Weaver was the subject of arrest by federal agents in the deadly Ruby Ridge Standoff. The incident ended in a peaceful surrender, after Weaver's wife, son, and a federal agent were killed. He was eventually charged with 18 months in prison, only on accounts that had to do with the initial cause of the arrest. His family received a total of $3,100,000 in compensation for the killing of his wife and son. His wife, Vicki Weaver, was shot while retreating unarmed, holding one of her children.
