Waco Conspiracy
In 1993 she produced a videotape entitled Waco: The Big Lie, which contained footage of the siege of the Branch Davidian church in Waco, Texas and a history of the community. The videotape was distributed widely and for a short period after its release she was a regular guest on talk radio shows. The film challenged the mainstream news reports of the Branch Davidian siege and created a small sensation, alleging a government coverup of the events surrounding the siege. Thompson pointed out many inconsistencies in the official story and the government reports, and the hypocrisy of using deadly weapons to "rescue" children from their parents.
Thompson also claimed that three BATF agents whom she alleges were killed by friendly fire during the siege were all former bodyguards of then-President Bill Clinton and the friendly fire was actually an assassination ordered by Clinton.
In 1994 Thompson produced Waco II: The Big Lie Continues, in which she offered rebuttals to those who were critical of her first film.
