Randall Claude Weaver (January 3, 1948 – May 11, 2022) was an American survivalist[1] and self-proclaimed white separatist.[2] He was a central actor in the 1992 Ruby Ridge standoff with federal agents at his cabin near Naples, Idaho, during which his wife and son were killed.[3][4] Weaver was charged with murder, conspiracy, and assault as well as other crimes. He was acquitted of most of the charges, but was convicted of failing to appear in court on a previous weapons charge and sentenced to 18 months in prison.[1] He and his family eventually received a total of $3.1 million in compensation for the killing of his wife and son by federal agents.[5]
