LawDragon: REPRESENTING A “CULT” LEADER: DAN COGDELL ON THE WACO TRIAL

LawDragon: REPRESENTING A “CULT” LEADER: DAN COGDELL ON THE WACO TRIAL

Showtime premiered a new limited series this weekend, “Waco: The Aftermath,” about the 1993 siege of a compound controlled by the religious sect known as the Branch Davidians. While the 2018 limited series, “Waco,” told the story of the nearly two-month standoff between the sect members and law enforcement – which led to the deaths of 82 members and four federal agents – the new series covers what happened after the armed conflict, including the investigations and seven-week trial of 11 members of the Branch Davidians.

We caught up with Dan Cogdell, the distinguished Houston criminal defense attorney who represented Clive Doyle, who was facing charges over the murder of the federal agents. The siege and the trial gripped the nation, and the themes of religious extremism, homegrown militia movements and brutality by law enforcement are still playing out today.
