I know what was behind Ruby Ridge/Randy Weaver BS, never got the skinny on WACO.
Anyone?
From what I understand of the reasons it was due to a bunch of firearms that were bought (supposedly over $50k). They say that Koresh bought them. I believe that they claim that there were a bunch of unregistered full autos. They also claimed Koresh was involved in statatory rape. I think that was part of the "warrant" that they were trying to "serve" Koresh. They claimed that Koresh never left the compound, but he jogged on the road outside the compound daily.
