Narrator:
At 9:00, Attorney General Reno left the command center at FBI headquarters to give a speech in nearby Baltimore. From then on, Waco decisions were made by top officials of the FBI and the Clinton Administration.

John B. Shadegg, US Congress, Arizona (R) Four minutes into the raid, it escalates. The 48 hour plan according to testimony is gone, we're now going to do a massive insertion of gas into every window. Did you consider staying in Washington, DC given that escalation four minutes into the plan?

Janet Reno, US Attorney General:
During the course of the morning, the question arose whether I should cancel the speech and the FBI did not want me to do so because they thought it would attract attention if I suddenly canceled the speech it looked like there would be an emergency.
