Anyway, I was in the area for work and decided to stop by the site of the compound. It was morbid fascination at first but it ended up being really sad. There were no signs that said "Keep Out" or "No Trespassing." There was a welcome sign and several memorials. We didn't see a soul. Just some horses.
Above is the entrance to the property. If you drive back further you'll see the Branch Davidian's new church, more memorials, and what is left of the compound that was destroyed on 4/19/93. All that's really left is the swimming pool, full of standing water. It looked like they had planted a garden where the buildings once stood. Again, not a soul was seen.
Go here to see where the pool stood in relation to the rest of the compound |
