Hear Attorney General Janet Reno talk about the new investigation into the FBI's role in the Branch Davidian standoff and fire.

The revelations come after 6 years of denials by the FBI that its agents did anything during the confrontation that would have sparked the explosions and the fire that reduced the Branch Davidian compound to ashes and debris.
