And so they were trying to get, you know, Koresh to agree to get the kids out.

He said, yep, we can do this two by two, is what he said.

And he said, in return, I want to broadcast –

this hour-long sermon on the Christian Broadcasting Network, and that'll be the swap for the kids.

And so they're working on this.

They're trying to get everybody out, basically, and surrendering.

And on March 2nd, it was almost there.

Like, everybody was about to come out, and they were relenting.

And then Koresh said, nope, I got a message from God, and he told me to wait.

Yeah, for sure.

Yeah, and I think the other thing those videotapes did was it sort of sent a chill through the FBI because it was really clear when you watch these videotapes that no one was being held hostage.

Nobody was being held against their will.

They all believed that what they were doing was right and was God's plan.

In the end, like Janet Reno never saw those tapes.

So there's a lot of speculation on what information she was being fed because she had been on the job for like a week or two.

And so they are basically saying like, no, they kept those tapes from her.

Because it showed a different picture of what was going on inside.

And he was painted to her as like, you know, a sex offender illegally selling guns.

They killed four of ours.

And it's a cult that's holding like he's kind of holding all these people hostage inside.
