FBI trolling for news.
All levels of Law Enforcement LOVE publicity.
It is one of a handful of things that motivate them to act.
That’s not true.. Some do, but most, especially those who have been around the block a few times and aren’t looking for future aspirations in politics etc prefer not to have publicity.
The ones that aspire for publicity are generally not the ones you want on the force.
Yup. The fact is that the BATF head was to testify before Congress to defend his budget. BATF scheduled their botched raid on David Koresh’s Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas right before this testimony.
It is supposed by many that a “dramatic takedown” of Koresh would have been to the bureau’s benefit.
People needlessly died in their attempt at a win. They could have picked up Koresh easily when he made a weekly grocery run into town.
