1993 wACO STANDOFF WITH THE BRANCH DAVIDIANS
A federal weapons investigation into a doomsday cult known as the Branch Davidians, formed by a guy name David Koresh, led to a 51-day standoff that resulted in the death of 75 people and at least 4 Federal Agents back in 1993. This was a high-profile event and there are several lessons learned that every one in public safety should hear about. Mike discusses some of those details in this solo episode.
