Waco Hearings - DAY 4
WACO HEARINGS: 9:15 - 9:30PM - Master Number 10952 - INTRODUCTION: The following footage from the Waco Hearings consists of the questioning of the tenth group of panelists. They are Ron Nobel; Under Secretary of Enforcement for the Department of the Treasury and John Migwall; Director of the ATF. The following Representatives present questions, and or statements to the panelists: Shadegg, McCollum, Conyers, Scott, Mica and Zeliff. 21:15:02 Old footage from Master Number 10951 shows Mr. Nobel answering a question from Congressman Shadegg concerning the firing of Mr. Sarabyn and Mr. Chojnacki. 21:18:20 Fresh footage begins by showing Congressman Shadegg questioning Mr. Nobel about his comment, "I do not believe the people of America need their faith in law enforcement restored." Mr. Nobel replies that he believes that the vast majority of citizens believe their law enforcement officers to be honest and hardworking. 21:20:00 Chairman McCollum begins to close the hearings for the day, but is interrupted by Mr. Nobel who asks to make a statement. Mr. Nobel asserts that Congressman Zeliff has stated he believes that the Treasury Report is a cover-up. He asserts that if the hearings conclude that there was a cover-up that the blame be directed at him, and not those who assisted him in writing the Treasury Report. Congressman McCollum then attempts to clarify Mr. Hartnett's claim of a cover-up, and Congressman Zeliff states that new facts have come from the hearings, therefore, the Treasury Report isn't 100% comprehensive. 21:23:30 Congressman Conyers interjects to state that the stamina of the panelists needs to be commended, and asserts that they have been before the congressional panel longer than any previous panelists. 21:24:30 Congressman Scott and Congresswoman Jackson-Lee make brief statements. 21:26:00 Congressman Mica interrupts to complain how he wasn't able to ask several of his personal related questions. He then jumps on his soapbox, and states that unless his questions are answered he will be holding additional hearing in his committee in a few months. 21:26:25 Chairman McCollum then gives the schedule for the next two days. 21:27:28 Chairman McCollum recesses the Sub-Committee Chamber until tomorrow. 21:28:02 The Sub-Committee Chamber is shown in recess. 21:30:01 TIME OUT.
