About this show

Few had ever heard of the Branch Davidians and their leader David Koresh until the events of February 28, 1993 when a raid by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms on their center close to Waco, Texas, left four agents and six of the religious sect dead. Who was David Koresh – a con man or an anointed messenger of God sent to warn his followers of the imminent end of the world?
