Re: Waco Autopsy Photographs (February 1993)
The Waco Siege[11] began on February 28, 1993 when the United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) attempted to execute a search warrant at the Branch Davidian ranch at Mount Carmel, a property located nine miles (14 km) east-northeast of Waco, Texas. An exchange of gunfire resulted in the deaths of four agents and six followers of David Koresh. A subsequent 51-day siege by the Federal Bureau of Investigation ended on April 19 when fire destroyed the compound. Seventy-six people (24 of them British nationals)[12] died in the fire, including more than 20 children and two pregnant women, along with then-Davidian leader Vernon Wayne Howell, better known as David Koresh. |
