November 13, 2023 by Marisa Roffman
“Ruby Ridge: The Real Story” – When a U.S. Deputy Marshal is shot and killed in 1992 while staking out wanted fugitive Randy Weaver on a remote mountaintop in Northern Idaho, the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) is called in to arrest the perpetrators. With Weaver and his family holed up inside their cabin, an 11-day armed standoff ensues – with deadly consequences. Former members of the Hostage Rescue Team, Charlie Rasner (an FBI Special Agent who worked domestic terrorism and civil rights cases before joining the HRT where he was awarded the FBI’s Shield of Bravery), Jim McGee (who received the Medal of Valor for Exceptional Heroism as a member of the HRT) and Dale Monroe (a former Marine Corps pilot and retired FBI Special Agent who was also awarded the Shield of Bravery) sit down with fellow agent Kristy Kottis to go on the record for the very first time about the tragic siege. The CBS Original series FBI TRUE, scheduled to air Tuesday, Nov. 14 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+.
