I just heard, know no details.

Mike produced “Waco: The Rules of Engagement” and directed “The FLIR Project” and “Waco: A New Revelation.” Back in ’93, he and I forced reopening of the Waco issue, which led to appointment of an independent counsel (who spent a lot of money, prosecuted the one honest guy on the government side, and did little else). The third member of the group (I can’t call it a team, since we had no organization) was Gordon Novel, who died last year. (If a dictionary wanted an illustration for the term “enigmatic,” they would have used Gordon’s picture).

UPDATE: it was a heart attack. Dang, Mike was SO dedicated a man. Here’s a memorial page for Mike. Funeral is 11 AM Thursday, at the LDS stake center at 3800 Mountain Lion Dr., Loveland, CO.
