279: [FREE WEEKLY EPISODE] David Koresh and The Waco Siege [Part 1 of 2]

279: [FREE WEEKLY EPISODE] David Koresh and The Waco Siege [Part 1 of 2]

On April 19th, 1993, FBI agents began pouring tear gas into a compound known as Mount Carmel in Waco, Texas. It was the final act of a 51 day standoff that had taken place between law enforcement and a religious group known as The Branch Davidians. After a failed attempt by the ATF to serve a warrant to arrest the group's leader, David Koresh, for stockpiling illegal weapons, the standoff began. By the end, 82 Branch Davidians were dead, including 28 children, and four ATF agents had been killed. The country was left with questions that remain unanswered to this day, the most important one being, who was responsible for the 86 deaths that happened at Mount Carmel?

TRIGGER WARNINGS: child abuse, child sexual abuse, grooming, cults, extreme religious beliefs and practices.
