Terry Nichols (born April 1, 1955) is accused of being the accomplice of Timothy McVeigh, an American terrorist in the Oklahoma City bombing (Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA, April 19, 1995).

In the days before Nichols' state trial was set to begin, an Associated Press article cited FBI agents expressing outrage that they had not been shown evidence that Moore's license, or a fake license resembling his, was seized from the MidWest Bank Robbers. The gang of Aryan Republican Army affiliated robbers were reported to have visited Elohim City during the same days that McVeigh was alleged to have visited the private village in northern Arkansas.

Terry Nichols has told investigators he did not rob Roger Moore, in fact he contends Moore gave him the weapons, cash and precious stones. If this is true was Roger Moore trying to help finance the OKC bombing? The circumstances surrounding the "robbery" are controversial for various reasons. If it occurred, that is if Terry Nichols forcibly robbed Roger Moore at gunpoint with a pump shotgun and a garrote wire as a gun strap, or did he willingly provide the items in question. Was the government trying to build a case against McVeigh and Nichols and was Roger Moore a good witness. Did Moore decide he was robbed after it was discovered he could have been considered a suspect instead of a victim. Moore was given a polygraph test by the FBI, so does that mean he is credible or is he really involved in the crime. Before the bombing Roger Moore was arrested in Oklahoma by Oklahoma Highway Patrol Troopers, for shooting a tracer round into another vehicle during a road rage incident. Roger Moore was travelling to a gun show when the incident occurred, he also first met McVeigh at a gun show in Florida. During his initial arrest he fought with the Oklahoma Troopers and resisted arrest, he later detested Oklahoma law enforcement because of the arrest. Did he have a reason to help the two main suspects in the case, we may never know the truth in this critical aspect of the case.
