About this episode

Jeff Davis and Mike Hanson unveil graphic artistic representations of children killed during the 1993 Mount Carmel fire in Waco, Texas. These memorials focus on the remains of an eight-year-old boy named Cyrus and three teenage girls to force a public confrontation with the siege's lethal outcome. The project aims to preserve the identities of the Branch Davidian victims against what the creators describe as historical erasure.

Archaeological teams at the Mount Carmel site are currently extracting household artifacts and military debris from rubble piles, including knives and fragments of government-issued grenades. These excavators allege that federal authorities previously stripped topsoil and destroyed a storm shelter where children died from a shaped charge. Meanwhile, survivor Clive Doyle reports the death of his oldest daughter in a Pennsylvania car crash while she was en route to the 25th-anniversary memorial. Doyle remains skeptical of government reform, claiming the state only learned to further restrict press access during domestic sieges. Scholars Phil Arnold, James Tabor, and Catherine Wessinger are scheduled to speak at the 701 Jefferson Avenue memorial service to seek spiritual resolution for the community.

Producer Mike Hanson is digitizing a massive archive of 2,200 television programs recorded between 1995 and 2010 to prevent the loss of historical VHS media. This preservation project includes early footage of Alex Jones and Jeff Davis alongside survivor interviews. The Waco Archives channel now hosts these recovered segments, including rare documentation of the 1999 church rebuild and the ongoing efforts of survivors like Clive Doyle to maintain their religious sanctuary.

00:00 Hello folks, this is Jeff Davis with the legendary Jeff Davis show from Central Texas USA and I love Mike Hanson archives Peace out baby. I love Mike Hanson archives Yeah, that would be good And I decided, I don't have to make this look so good because it's supposed to look ugly. You know? The other one I did was a little darker but the fact is they had no arms and no legs and this is not... This is not little pretty girls like this 18 year old girls. They do not like you know.. This is not the way you want them to look. I realized every child looked different Every child came out of that fire

00:49 Whether they were under a blanket and they were being protected by their mother, each child was different. Some children you could tell the clothes and other children said that heads fell off in their hands. But this is...the majority of people came out looking like this And as a result I think we should realize that it's a horrible thing My name is Cyrus. I was eight years old when i died, I was burned alive at Mount Carmel April 19th 1993 This is on that picture of the Waco the new revelation to show the bodies of the children just burnt to a crisp new reclamation This is how I used to look He had blond hair blue eyes freckles he's a cute little guy very smart very intelligent He says why didn't I get a chance to grow up?

01:49 You know, why couldn't they have had a chance to come and see all this? To know that so many people cared. It's enough that his dad would've died but to think he could have been alive to seeing all the things that people were considering... The different things that happened. We have one here as a native. Sherry and Michelle. These are three girls who were burned at Mount Carmeline from 1993 We don't know what they look like, but we know that the remains is what they came up with a lot of these young children. These are three girls who were the best friends 18 years old few months from being 19. They try to talk and be with each other. We're out here it's week 17

02:57 And I'm digging around out here in some of the rubble piles. We've been digging up household implements, knives, forks, scissors, batteries and a lot of fragments from government grenades and tear gas rounds. We're also finding a lot of different .50 cal rounds, 2-2-3 round from conventional firearms really really interesting and historical It's too bad the feds came out here and scraped away most topsoil took the pieces of the storm shelter, the storage area inside where they killed children with a shape charge and shipped it off to a landfill outside Waco and covered it up with concrete. We're trying to dig up what we can down here while we are constructing new sanctuary. Very historical and great to be apart of

Karen was coming down had her plane booked she was coming down for the memorial. Ended up dying in a head-on collision with a drunk driver People up in Pennsylvania saying that it was deliberate, it wasn't an accident. Tried to run a cop off the road first and I guess the cop avoided it. Tried to run down another woman and she avoided it. Karen was third in line. So... They say she died instantly which is... At least she didn't suffer too much

08:13 Shows that we did over 2,200 shows that we did on AXS TV Uploaded to YouTube and other social media spots On the internet getting them off of the old VHF VSH tapes and Transfer it over to computer which is not easy. I've hired some people to help me. I've bought a bunch of equipment and as a lot of y'all know, I'm not computer savvy whatsoever! I dread the day that computers ever was invented but...I'm having to go and do all this because if we don't these tapes are gonna be ruined forever in the history is going to be lost

09:07 Because these shows that we did back in the 90s were very historical, in my opinion. And I think they will be and a lot of predictions were made on these shows for the future and I wanna get them up. So please subscribe to Mike Hanson Archives on YouTube. Hanson Archives, and my new one is Waco Archives. Which anything we did with Waco you know we rebuilt the church out there in 1999 and I was friends with a lot of the survivors in mid 90's And all those interviews that I can put together We're gonna put on Waco Archives
