Where did you see that Texas rangers were there? Can you recall? I haven’t come across reference to them anywhere, only ATF and a sniff of FBI, along with Waco locals. I must have missed it, but ... if you remember (though I’d understand if you didn’t) I’d like to know. Thanks!
Wasnt it in the original police report that took forever to be released? I will look around a bit.
Hope you don’t mind me jumping in here, but I seem to remember Rangers mentioned somewhere as coming into the story later, well after the shootup:
The number of officers initially assigned to the Twin Peaks event on 5-17-15 are as follows:
There were 16 uniformed Waco Police Department Officers to include 5 Supervisors (3 Sergeants, 1 Commander and an Assistant Chief). Included in that number was a Tactical Element (SWAT Officers) assigned and present. .... There were 6 marked Waco Police units and 4 unmarked Waco Police vehicles. This does not include DPS vehicles. There were also Texas Department of Public Safety Officers assigned to the event as well.
I’m pretty sure that if there were Rangers present it would have been mentioned to provide a bit more credibility to the police operation. There’s a lot of respect here for the Texas Rangers.
Also, I think an ex-Ranger was hired by one of the lawyers involved to investigate.
I have. There was at least one Texas Ranger on the scene. I am not sure of the timing of when he/they were there.
“Where did you see that Texas rangers were there?”
Also on another forum there was a DPS member posting that he would take the word of the Texas Ranger on the scene. That is all the info he gave up and rightly so from his stand point.
