From: Gary Hunt at the Outpost of Freedom in Waco, Texas
Date: MARCH 19, 1993An Emergency Petition for
Writ of Mandamus was filed with the United States
District Court, Western District of Texas, Waco Division
this afternoon. It was filed by David Koresh, by attorney
in fact, Gary D. Hunt, by Gary D. Hunt and Linda
Thompson, as next friends, Plaintiffs v. Jeff Jamar of
the FBI.
The petition alleges that Jamar is without legal
authority in his actions, regarding the actions which
have taken place in Waco since February 28, 1993. The
allegations include murder, denial of medical attention,
interruption of utilities, interception and denial of
telephonic communications, torture, harassment and
infliction of emotional distress upon Koresh and others
within the church complex at Mt. Carmel.
Also alleged are false and fraudulent stories to news
media and ridiculing the religious beliefs of the Branch
Davidians, as well as denial of access to the press.
Inherent rights, as protected by the constitution,
which are alleged to have been denied include those
enumerated in Articles One, Four, Five and Nine.
The Mandamus seeks to allow Plaintiffs access to each
other for the purpose of allowing communication and
consultation during all negotiations and for all legal
purposes. A hearing is tentatively scheduled for Monday,
March 22.
