Ruby Ridge was an eleven-day Siege in 1992. On August 21 United States Marshals went to Randy Weaver’s home, in Idaho, to serve a bench warrant for a failure to appear firearm charges. Randy Weaver failed to surrender and this prompted the eleven-day stand-off between the Weaver family and several agencies from the U.S. government. Several people lost their lives because of this siege because of the mistakes made on both sides.
