Book excerpt: It was February 28, 1993 and after months of investigations and following up on leads by disgruntled former members, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms attempted to raid a religious commune, on the outskirts of Waco, Texas, known as the Branch Davidians in an effort to arrest their charismatic leader Vernon Howell aka David Koresh. Gunshots run out! By the time a ceasefire was negotiated three hours later four BATF agents, and five Branch Davidian religious members were dead. A 51-day siege followed which included broken promises on both sides, psychological mind games and an ongoing battle between the Government and religious freedom. On April 19, 1993, with the whole world watching military tanks operated by members of the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team began to systematically began breaching the building the religious followers followers had been hold up in, dispersing CS Gas to force an end to the siege when fire broke out.
