These
drawings from the 1993 Treasury Department report on BATF actions against
the Branch Davidians show the relation of
Mount Carmel ("compound") to their car shop the "Mag Bag" and the FBI road
blocks set up after February 28. The layout graphic shows a close
up view of the center.
The photograph
below and the captions also are from the Treasury Department report, as
included in The Davidian Massacre.
Davidian
prisoner appeals attorneys and civil suit attorneys will be using the photograhic
evidence to argue that
BATF agents kneeling at the front door had no
fear of the Davidians firing at them. The photograph was taken by
reporters within two minutes of the time BATF entered the Mount Carmel
property.
This photograph
evidently was taken seconds before as the agents ran towards the door.
Bullet
holes that entered the top of the four story tower and down into the building
were seen by attorneys Dick DeGuerin and Jack Zimmerman. Bullets only could
have come from the sky. The lines point to the trajectory of bullets
which are seen entering the roof in the widely distributed KWTX-TV video.
(See photo below.) These only could have come from the sky, not the
four story tower to the left of the drawing.
