  • A Guide to the Lee Hancock Collection
    A Guide to the Lee Hancock Collection, 1975 – 2004, Bulk: 1993-2000 Collection 099 Descriptive Summary Creator: Hancock, Lee Title: Lee Hancock Collection Dates: 1975 – 2004, Bulk: 1993-2000 Abstract: Documents, clippings, videos, and other research materials represent journalist Lee Hancock’s research into the events of the Branch Davidian standoff near Waco in 1993. The materials are arranged into the following five series: Non-Branch Davidian Incidents, Media Coverage, Investigations, House of Representatives Hearings, and Lawsuits. Identification: Collection 099 Extent: 20 boxes (10 linear feet) Language: Materials are written in English Repository: Southwestern Writers Collection, Special Collections, Alkek Library, Texas State University-San Marcos Lee Hancock Collection SWWC Collection 099 Historical Sketch On February 28, 1993 the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) attempted to issue an arrest warrant for Vernon Wayne Howell and a search warrant for the Mount Carmel Center near Waco, Texas on the basis of illegal weapons possession. The Branch Davidians in Mount Carmel and the ATF began a shootout that ended in the deaths of four ATF agents and six Branch Davidians. The occupants of Mount Carmel and government agencies remained in a standoff for fifty-one days until the FBI launched CS gas into the compound in an effort to make the Branch Davidians exit. The CS gas assault on April 19, 1993 ended in a fire in which seventy-six people inside Mount Carmel died, including twenty-three children. After the fire a series of lawsuits and investigations began, including the 1994 criminal trial of the Branch Davidians, the 1995 congressional hearings, and a wrongful-death civil trial in 2000.

  • After Decades of Suspicion, Robert Durst Faces Justice the Subject of Hboʼs “The Jinx” Goes on Trial This Week, Accused of Killing a Dear Friend
    3/4/2020 What You Need to Know About the Robert Durst Trial - The New York Times https://nyti.ms/2PGh2UI After Decades of Suspicion, Robert Durst Faces Justice The subject of HBOʼs “The Jinx” goes on trial this week, accused of killing a dear friend. But the case will reach deep into his past, to the unsolved disappearance of his first wife. By Charles V. Bagli March 3, 2020 Kathleen and Robert Durst as a young couple in the 1970s. Jim McCormack/HBO 1982 Missing: Kathleen McCormack Durst https://www.nytimes.com/article/robert-durst-trial.html 1/7 3/4/2020 What You Need to Know About the Robert Durst Trial - The New York Times “VANISHES! Search for beautiful wife of developer” screamed the headline in The New York Post. That developer was Robert A. Durst, heir to a real estate empire whose towers helped shape the Manhattan skyline. His wife, a 29-year-old medical student, had disappeared the night of Jan. 31, Mr. Durst told the paper (in an interview arranged by his friend and publicist, Susan Berman), and he desperately wanted to find her. Married in 1973, the couple partied at Studio 54, sailed the Mediterranean and traveled to Thailand. They split time between a lakeside cottage 50 miles north of Manhattan and a penthouse apartment on Riverside Drive. But their relationship grew fraught, friends would later say, after Mr. Durst pressed his wife to have an abortion. Five days after her disappearance, Mr. Durst walked into a police precinct station house to report her missing.

  • On the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary of the Saturday Night Massacre by the Honorable Laurence H
    On the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary of the Saturday Night Massacre by The Honorable Laurence H. Silberman* You have asked me to speak on my personal recollections of the latter Watergate period. It is risky, inviting aging judges to recount "war stories." Some of the matters I will describe have been reported on--at least in part. But I dare say I will give you some fresh information and certainly some added context. You should be warned, however, I have concluded, after reading innumerable memoirs, that the author invariably portrays him or herself in an overly favorable light. It is 25 years ago this month that the so-called Saturday Night Massacre occurred. Elliot Richardson, the Attorney General, was obliged to resign; Bill Ruckelshaus, the Deputy Attorney General, was fired; and the then third-ranking Solicitor General, Bob Bork, as Acting Attorney General, discharged Archibald Cox, the Watergate Special Prosecutor. The events that weekend in terms of dramatic impact rank with the fall of the Soviet Empire and the start of the Gulf War. Still, we all tend to think of such events in personal terms. When I was asked for my reaction at a dinner that Saturday night, I responded that we knew that President Richard Nixon disliked and distrusted Harvard graduates, but this seemed a bit extreme. In a few months, however, I would replace Bill Ruckelshaus, who was a class ahead of * Of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. This speech was delivered to the University of Minnesota Law Review’s Symposium, ¯ University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, October 24, 1998.
