There was one gun. And eventually all these American military come to get the bodies. And in the beginning, the American State Department's like, we don't want these bodies. You know, can't you just build a mass pet and bury them there? That's what they say. to the president of Guyana. And he says, no, we will not do that. You need to come get your American dead.

These are American people killing Americans. So this is your problem. So for the next several days, these units from the first, they come from a base in Panama and then some other bases. And they're people who are used to dealing with bodies, but not with 900 plus bodies. of civilians, you know, they're used to dealing with the war dead.

It was more like a third. A lot of these bodies could not be identified. They didn't do enough examinations. There was a Guyanese coroner who wanted to do them. But he's not going to be able to do 900 bodies. I think he looked at approximately 100 of them, which is already a lot of bodies. The identification issue is a total mess.

And they did some, you know, there was a whole nother thing about kind of the jurisdiction over these bodies.
