Part III

Shortly after the Waco Siege surviving branch Davidians were put on trial for the death of officers and for the illegal possession and use of firearms. One of the Davidians was dismissed form the case but the other 11 were convicted on one way or another. As of July 2007 all the Davidians had been released form jail. The U.S government received a lot of  criticism on how they handled the situation, and on the result which many believed to be the Governments fault. The remaining Davidians and their families attempted to sue the U.S but their case was denied for lack of evidence. The Oklahoma city bombing was performed on the 2nd year anniversary of the Waco Siege. Despite how big the event was when it happened the impact on todays society is little. Many people born after it dont even know what it was.

Part II:

David Koresh (formally known as Vernon Howell), sect leader of the Branch Davidian near Waco, Texas, has had a history of being disobident with the law, expescially the laws involving rape and legal usage of weaponary. David was also originally born Vernon Howell, but wanted to change his name for "publicity and business reasons". The most promising and likely reason why he did this was to clear his name of his previous charges.

Jason Brokamp - Conspiracy Theories

There's a theory in existence today contradicting what society has believed for almost 20 years. On February 28, 1993 the Waco Siege began. It was rumored that the leader, David Koresh and at least 100 others were gathered in a ranch in Mount Carmel with firearms, and barricaded doors keeping out the FBI; and after 51 days of this "Mexican stand off" type of conquest, Koresh and his men light the building on fire killing all or most of those inside. But why would anyine trying so hard and so long to prove a point just give up like that?

Part I

Part I: Research your topic to discover what happend during your event. What are the main facts and storlines?

The day conflict began with FBI and ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tabaco and Firearms) showing up on site just outside of Waco Texas. For 51 days, the ATF and the FBI waited outside the compound, using negotiators to try to end the stand-off peacefully.

The people on the inside were the Davidian Religious Group.

Their leader was David Koresh.

On Sunday April 18th, armored vehicles arrived with intention of clearing and creating a new front door to the building.

On Monday 19 April, the FBI notified the Davidians of the imminent tear gas assault.

The Davidians begin shooting shortly after the gas attack began at 6 a.m.

The gas attack continued for several hours, and the armored vehicles begin smashing holes in the buildings.

Immediately following the first breaching in the building Davidians start firing shots at the vehicles.

Then two unidentified males caught on FBI survalence tapes saying, ""Everybody wake up, let's start to pray", then, "Pablo have you poured it yet" ..."Huh" ... "Have you poured it yet"... "in the hallway"... "things are poured, right?"

A few hours later at 12:07, the first flames are spotted in the front of the building then most of the building goes up in flames and some followers are spotted fleeing the complex.

About 1/2 hour later the emergency vehicles arive. But by that time the entire building is incinerated.
