Maybe release the bikers and jail the police, ATF, prosecutors, local judges, etc. sure sounding more and more like THEY are the criminals run amok.

Ping.

Caught in just one lie?

The plot thickens. This will cause the jackboot lickers to saddle up one more time.

Freepers, read the whole document! The end of this murderous charade being carried out by Waco authorities is coming, and it’s coming very soon.
The lies can’t be covered up.

Broden has been on this, hard. I did a search with the lawyer's name and that of his client, and there is a nice collection of press releases.

What the lawyer describes for government/police practice is not surprising in the least.

Reality on the street is that cops and DA routinely and knowingly violate rights. The only time such violations are an issue for the violating department is when the argument is brought before a judge, and more often than not, the judge upholds illegal government action. This practice works because few defendants (or plaintiffs, if somebody wronged by the government has the temerity to sue for relief) have the time or patience to press on to an appellate court; and oftentimes, the remedy is illusory or worthless.

The system is of course rigged in favor of the government. There are good policy reasons for that. But the government ALWAYS abuses its advantage. When you work for the government, it pays to cheat.

Rule 1 of being in a hole: Stop digging!

Thanks for the thread and welcome to the conversation.

What is it about Waco that makes Fedzilla want to commit some serious Nazi-era breaches of human rights?

I guess its a good thing that bar wasn’t burned to the ground with flamethrowers.

If they really issued the search warrants on July 15, 2015, then they are way ahead of the rest of us!

They named the town Wacko for good reason.

“The Waco police seem unwilling or unable to tell the public the truth"

[zeugma]

Broden did say, however, that Mr. Clendennen willingly provided police with the password to access his mobile phone once he learned of the search warrant yesterday.

Why the hell would someone provide them with a password? I'd tell them to stuff it.

In the 1979 Ybarra decision, the Supreme Court announced: “Where the standard is probable cause, a search or seizure of a person must be supported by probable cause particularized with respect to that person. This requirement cannot be undercut or avoided by simply pointing to the fact that coincidentally there exists probable cause to search or seize another or to search the premises where the person may happen to be.”

Just as I thought.

And to think, just a couple days ago. some boot-licker on another Waco thread was lecturing me a out my lack of understanding of Probable Cause". I wonder where he is right now.
