In this episode, we delve into the infamous story of the Branch Davidians, a religious group led by David Koresh that made headlines in the early 1990s. The group believed that Koresh was a messiah figure and that the end of the world was imminent. But tensions with law enforcement came to a head in 1993, when a standoff between the group and federal agents in Waco, Texas turned deadly. The ensuing siege and eventual raid on the group's compound resulted in the deaths of 76 Branch Davidians, including Koresh himself. We explore the history and beliefs of the group, the events that led up to the tragic standoff, and the controversy and conspiracy theories that have surrounded the Waco siege in the years since.
