Pol Claims No Waco Cover-up
Answering charges that the Justice Department covered up the FBI's use of pyrotechnic devices at Waco, Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Ca.) has released records showing that, in 1995, Justice officials gave Congress "substantial evidence of the use of military tear gas rounds" at the Branch Davidian compound. Included in documents Waxman forwarded yesterday (September 13) to John Danforth, the special counsel investigating Waco, was this 1993 FBI interview report with a bureau pilot. R. Wayne Smith told fellow agents of hearing a radio transmission during which agents spoke "relative to the utilization of some sort of military round...on a oncrete bunker." (5 pages)
