The Treasury Department's review was unambiguous: ATF raid commanders Chuck Chojnacki and Phillip Sarabyn were told the element of surprise was gone before they ordered seventy-six agents forward on February 28, 1993. They proceeded anyway. Four agents died. And then both men lied about what they knew.
Federal prosecutors reviewed the evidence. The Justice Department considered criminal charges. And nothing happened.
This episode examines the accountability that didn't come — and why that absence mattered as much as anything that happened inside Mount Carmel. Drawing on the Treasury Department's own findings, whistleblower testimony from federal attorney Bill Johnston, and the legal arguments prosecutors used to justify inaction, this chapter reconstructs one of the most consequential non-decisions in the aftermath of the Waco siege.
The episode also traces the institutional logic that protected two senior commanders at the cost of public trust. When paired with the Ruby Ridge investigation the year before — where federal agents were found to have acted improperly and no one went to prison — the pattern became impossible to ignore. Critics, survivors, and a growing militia movement heard the same message: the government makes fatal mistakes, lies about them, and faces no real consequences.
Two years later, Timothy McVeigh was listening too.
This is the story of how institutional self-protection shapes history — and how the silence after Waco helped ignite the next disaster.
