You almost have to gasp at the way the feds treated the Dividians.
It's spelled "Davidians".
The feds never offered medical treatment to Koresch who was wounded by gunfire or anyone else or legal council but instead they escalated the situation by torturing the people with blasting never ending music.
It's spelled "Koresh" (the man's name was actually Vernon Howell), and frankly, he was more than welcome to medical treatment AFTER he turned himself in. These mutants shot 4 federal agents.
It was the same tactic they used against Randy Weaver at Ruby Ridge. An FBI sniper shot Mrs. Weaver in the face while she was holding an 18 month old baby in her arms standing in the doorway. Did he mistake a baby for a machine gun through the scope?
No, they saw the machine guns that the rest of the Nazis at Ruby Ridge were holding, like the one they used to shoot a federal agent.
It's easy to imagine the Dividians fearing for their lives with a hundred FBI scopes trained on the compound.
Yup, they was so scared they burned themselves alive. More food for the rest of us.
It doesn't matter if children alleged mistreatment after the fact. The laughable warrant affidavit which was the basis for the initial assault by the feds alleged that the Dividians were converting rusty WW2 British de-milled junk into fully automatic weapons.
They were selling kits to upgrade AR-15's to M16's.
Only rusty junk was recovered after 80 men women and children were incinerated and nobody ever asked the feds what the hell they were thinking.
There were THREE Federal investigations and Congressional hearings.
And Republicans thought they could really embarrass Janet Reno, until Kiri Jewell testified that Koresh was a dirty-stinking child molester.... whoops.
