Initial Raid Discrepancies, 911 Emergency Calls

Eyewitness accounts from reporters and 911 recordings challenge the official narrative of the initial February 28 raid. Reporter John McLemore described a frontal assault by agents in livestock trailers, while 911 tapes capture Wayne Martin's desperate plea for the shooting to stop because women and children were inside. The evidence suggests the Branch Davidians were reacting in self-defense to an unprovoked attack by armed agents.
