How much care did the FBI Hostage Rescue Team
show for the numerous children that it knew were trapped in the Waco
standoff
between it and the adult Branch Davidians? In her report "Beyond The Voice Of Reason,"
criminology professor Dr. Fran Haga writes that:
"Hope for some time was expressed that the
children might
have taken shelter in the buried school bus which had been accessible through a trap door - at the more northern end of the building (see trap door marked on body recovery diagram 4). However, shortly after 6 AM April 19, 1993, FBI Agent R.J. Craig's CEV had knocked that end of the building from its foundation and had buried in rubble the trapdoor leading to the buried school bus." This is beyond dispute; Agent Craig testified
during the House Waco hearings (as Dr. Haga relates):
"... to destroying stairwells and to following a
plan to
herd the Davidians to the center." Thus, the FBI admitted to the use of armored
vehicles against a flimsy building in full knowledge that many children were
inside of it - all in an effort to "herd" the occupants to undestroyed parts of
the building.
As Dr. Haga continues, the CEVs penetrated so
far into the building - a building full of children - during this effort
to
systematically destroy it in order to "herd" occupants to a part to be left standing - as to disappear into the building; the CEV at the front did so at least once, and it was intentional. She relates:
"The audio record which once existed of
taped
communications between the vehicles and their command posts indicated that the CEV making that frontal entry was directed to crash into the concrete block room and knock it down. These directions were issued while the entry runs were underway, not prior to them as part of any over all plan." The "concrete block room" would later gain fame
as "the bunker."
