Summary and Comment: The DOJ Report states:
- Unidentified Branch Davidians From April 19 Fire … Doe 13, a 30-50 year old female, died of multiple fractures of the cervical spine, caused by blunt force trauma probably associated with a fall. Her body was found in front of the bunker.
Daisy's body was not found at the bottom of a staircase or balcony, and a fall from a standing position rarely causes a neck fracture or multiple fractures. The multiple government officials employed to protect the public are remarkably indifferent to evidence of violent death.
