David Koresh in Waco was arrested on a MURDER warrant a few years before the ATF chinese fire drill. He won in court.
The arrest on the murderwarrant was done with two McClennon county deputies in sport jackets, knocking on the door with an arrest warrant.
No he wasn't. That arrest was on a far less serious charge. "Attempted murder? Now honestly, what is that? Do they give a Nobel prize for attempted chemistry? Do they?"
And Koresh was actually arrested by the sheriff phoning him and telling him to surrender. He did.
The sheriff in Waco claimed he could have gotten Koresh to come to town for a sit down at any time. There was absolutely no need for that jackboot operation.
Koresh was in the habit of visiting the local town markets alone every week. They did not want him. They wanted a show and got it.
