38:05 They found them awful quick. He could not think of anybody except for 12 people in the whole place that would be shooting, the rest of them were like women and children and people that didn't deal with guns. Well it's funny they all got to him awful quick huh? But Jack just said a while ago if they really wanted to kill he woulda had 75 dead out there instead of 4. Well how come they didn't give themselves up? How come they didn't get out? Because they were scared is what I was told but I'll let Jack... Go ahead, I'm waiting. They were harboring you-I was waiting for you to finish that sentence. David Koresh had these people under his spell. They believed that David Koresh was telling them the truth. He said that the government would
38:52 Why? What was he so paranoid about? Why did he think the government was after him for what reason? Because he they studied the book of Revelation and and the book of Revelation talks about the beast in in the last days, and The government was performing precisely as David Koresh had interpreted the Bible to his followers. Why would the government acting that way I
39:34 Why was the government acting that way is a very good question. That's what we've all been asking ever since. Why did they want to arrest him in the first place? Well, that has not ever been fully investigated and we're trying right now to get this whole matter before grand jury there have been all kinds of crimes that were committed that have not been investigated as I told you before... Was it on federal charges Well, yes. There are federal laws that were broken there were state laws that were broken by you go That's why the FBI was there They don't yet and everything else no no You're misunderstanding me There were federal laws that were broken by the federal agents There were there were state laws that were broken by those federal agents their well
40:33 Good question. Let me, let me uh... Come on! Think quick because I think what they did they did it a hundred percent behind them 100%. No they had... They had the chance to get out of there with their children and they didn't they chose not to that's right they chose not to so they got what they asked for They thought they would be killed. They thought they would be killed if they walked out! Regardless, if they had that many people there bombarding them anyway... ...they were going to be killed anyway so why not take the chance and get out? That doesn't make much sense. Well, what are the charges? That's what I'm interested in It doesn't make much sense unless you can put yourself in the position of one of those branch Davidians to them it made perfect sense They were they knew they were going to die so they stayed with the with the leader Why are they afraid to die if their Christians? They're not afraid to die. Why didn't he come up and give himself up Oh
41:28 Why are they afraid? If he's a big Christian and he had all these followers, why didn't they give themselves up. He made no claim to be a Christian. He is afraid to die! He is not a Christian?! He made no claim to be a Christian. Okay wait...they're telling me I got a lot more calls here and he'll uh...did you want to tell her real quick about What what laws were violated the laws that were primarily violated with a fact that they came there to arrest on state laws when they had no jurisdiction on state laws. They had no authority whatsoever to go in and arrest on the basis of the warrant that they drummed up later on. The... Did the local police know he was heavily armed? Sure
42:14 Sure. Sheriff Harwell... Are you going to go to a gunfight and take out a knife? They're gonna send what they need to send, right? So are you gonna tell me that you're gonna go in armed or...? I'm not making any defense for David Koresh other than the fact that he was improperly attacked! It's the government that should have the highest level David Koresh and his followers are Not perfect people, but they don't have the authority of the state behind them They were they were the ones that should have been investigated. They shouldn't have been shot up They shouldn't have been Raided as if they were there were a bunch of murderers because they weren't they hadn't committed a single crime unless
43:02 It can be proven beyond a shadow of doubt that they had an illegal weapon. That's the only federal charge that might be able to stand up. If Correia had given itself up, none of it would have happened. Okay... That's true! We're going on some more calls. Did you want to play this real before we go? Yes.
