Oklahoma City bombing The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) led the official investigation, known as OKBOMB,[159] with Weldon L. Kennedy acting as Special Agent in charge.[160] Kennedy oversaw 900 federal, state, and local law enforcement personnel including 300 FBI agents, 200 officers from the Oklahoma City Police Department, 125 members of the Oklahoma National Guard, and 55 officers from the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety.[161] The crime task force was deemed the largest since the investigation into the assassination of John F. Kennedy.[161] OKBOMB was the largest criminal case in America's history, with FBI agents conducting 28,000 interviews, amassing 3.5 short tons (3.2 t) of evidence, and collecting nearly one billion pieces of information.[14][16][162] Federal judge Richard Paul Matsch ordered that the venue for the trial be moved from Oklahoma City to Denver, Colorado, citing that the defendants would be unable to receive a fair trial in Oklahoma.[163] The investigation led to the separate trials and convictions of McVeigh, Nichols, and Fortier.
