                     FBI MUST ANSWER FOR RUBY RIDGE

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, this ordeal at Ruby Ridge continues to 
amaze me. FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi, who shot and killed Vicki Weaver, 
unarmed holding her infant child, now says he will not testify at 
congressional hearings because the lawyers for Lon Horiuchi say they do 
not like the questions that will be answered.
  Mr. Speaker, what is going on here? No American should be deprived 
life, liberty, and pursuit of property. Where was the Miranda? Where 
was the due process? Where were the arraignments?
  Now the FBI is saying these are great mistakes. These are not just 
great mistakes. I say there was murder on Ruby Ridge. The FBI has to 
answer for those murders and for the power and arrogance of the Federal 
Government that trampled over citizens, then called them mistakes and 
will not testify because they do not like the questions.
  Shame Congress. Take the Government back.
