14. David Koresh and the Wacky Waco Siege - Part 2
David Koresh was born Vernon Wayne Howell on August 17, 1959 in Houston Texas and died on April 19, 1993 at age 33 on a momentous day in American history known as the Waco siege, or the Waco massacre; a deadly 51-day standoff against the FBI and the federal bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms. Koresh was an American cult leader of the Branch Davidians-a religious sect that received national attention during the aforementioned deadly standoff where Koresh, who believed himself to be a prophet and self-proclaimed messiah, commanded his followers to stockpiled mass amounts of deadly weapons in anticipation of the coming apocalypse that ended in fiery death. Join Carly and Tab this week as the unpack the wacky messiah who looked not like that of a cult leader but rather an odd man in a band with a memorizing personality that allowed him to exert influence over many, mounting an unexpected and deadly stand still with the FBI. - Part 2.
