...early last week. It is a document offering many pages (700 plus) but little closure. Agency officials summarizing it have asserted that their organization broke no laws in connection with Alpirez. The CIA did pay him, Hitz found, but it never possessed (let alone covered up) sufficient evidence to establish him as a party to either killing. This is not, however, because no such evidence existed; top CIA sources hurry to concede his possible involvement in the deaths.

...believed Koresh never left the Branch Davidian compound, and thus could never be isolated from his followers. But Koresh did leave the compound--several times in late 1992 and only weeks before the February 1993 raid. ATF just never knew it. The report blamed this on its "failure to establish an effective intelligence operation...
