Thibodeau told The Dallas Observer that though Waco ultimately got a few things wrong, he understood those changes were necessary to ramp up drama, and was impressed by the show's level of detail. (His 1999 book, A Place Called Waco: A Survivor's Story, also served as inspiration for the series).

He's currently around 50 and - as of 2018 - living in Maine. Of course, Thibodeau looks much different now than he did during the events of the show. It includes one of the few survivors of the deadly standoff: David Thibodeau, who's played by Rory Culkin. Paramount's 2018 miniseries, Waco, retells the story of the infamous 1993 siege at the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas, during which 76 people - including Branch Davidians leader David Koresh - died. ![]()
