From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] There are 5 chapters in my new book, "Sold Out: The Clinton Legacy" (due for release in December), about the Branch Davidians. I don't know if what's been said on here about Texas DPS workers is accurate or not, but I can verify that it was a female who "investigated" the Davidians, and reported that she believed Koresh was molesting some of the girls there. She couldn't prove anything, but she "suspected" molestation. However, when the head of Pediatric Psychiatry at Baylor U. Medical Ctr evaluated the girls who'd been released from Mt. Carmel, he reported that he found no evidence of molestation. Rather, he said, he believed the girls had witnessed sexual relations between men and women at Mt. Carmel. Funny thing, Janet Reno was aware of his report when she ordered CS gas to be used on the compound, ostensibly because "children were being molested there." Several years ago I spoke at the annual conference of VOCAL (Victims of Child Abuse Laws) in Dallas. I was there as a lawyer, and I told the members how to go about suing the government for civil rts violations (under 42 USC Sec. 1983, et seq.). At the meeting I heard horror story after horror story about the Texas DPS, and how many of the social workers employed by the Dept engineered something called "shop talk", as a means of justifying their bureaucratic existences. In other words, in the interest of keeping their jobs (and thus their retirements) intact, they would generate information based on speculation and supposition. One lie would build on another until the children were removed from their families. I believe the DPS worker who went to Mt Carmel may have tried that too. According to people at Elohim City (the cult compound in eastern Okla where Timothy McVeigh was known to hang out on occasion, and where I'm convinced the bombing was planned), a former Marine Recon ranger appeared there in late 1992, and said that he'd worked as a CIA assassin in Central Amer for the past 5 yrs but was sick and tired of killing people. The man, in his mid-20s, left in December '92 for a "safe house" outside Waco, Texas. How safe was it? Do you realize that many of the dead at Mt Carmel have never been identified.
