After local marshals arrived at a remote cabin in Idaho to serve a warrant on a white supremacist zealot for weapons violations, the confrontation led to a gunfight in which Randy Weaver's 14 year old son and a deputy were killed. In the horrifying 11 day siege, Weaver's wife was shot by an FBI sniper, and a shocked nation was forced to consider the fine line between freedom, protection, and murder in this controversial tragedy. A true story that shocked the nation.
