Key Witness Served In 11th Hour Lawyers’ Showdown(Waco)
Radio Legendary ^ | 3/3/2018

Posted on 03/03/2018 7:17:50 PM PST by Elderberry

When District Attorney Abel Reyna alighted from his car at the early voting center, the private investigator who served him with a witness subpoena had the rare distinction of a rooting section.

The rooting section took cell phone in hand to report the news.

As quickly as the gumshoe executed the return of service acknowledging that Abel Reyna is summoned to appear as a witness in the status conference hearing in the case of State V. Matthew Clendennen at 9 a.m. on Monday in the 54th Criminal District Court, the news hit the internet like a small pebble making wide waves in a little pond.

The attorney representing Clendennen, a former member of the Scimitars black and gold motorcycle club who was arrested for having a seat on the patio and ordering a bottle of water at Twin Peaks on May 17, 2015, is the guy who called Reyna’s bluff nearly three years ago.

F. Clinton Broden filed a motion to disqualify the DA and his staff that has resulted in the blowback of dozens upon dozens of case dismissals in order to avoid having to appear as a witness or allowing members of his staff to appear as such in other cases.

Why?

Quite simply, the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure prohibits a prosecutor who has been involved in the investigation of a case from serving also as the prosecutor.

The matter before the court – front and center – is whether Reyna and his staff became a “necessary witness” – that is, the complaining witness, or police officer, when he took command of the investigation the evening of the day 9 died and 20 suffered gunshot wounds at a Confederation of Clubs meeting for motorcycle enthusiasts.

He should next be charged, arrested, convicted, and jailed along with all of the officers, prosecutors, judges, and election officials involved. Bet they didn’t think all this when they went to that biker gathering with trigger happy cops positioned as snipers to murder bikers, which they then did.

Hopefully the voters will be ejecting the corrupt Reyna from office before he embarrasses the Waco area further and subjects it to even more financial jeopardy.

He would have been better off to let his Term run out and not sought another Term and moved on to another Venue. Now its do or die politically. All of this because He seems to have great disdain for biker groups. If I remember correct he was quoted as saying this was going to take him all the way to the Capital. Many Lives have been ruined by this Man and others, if this was a setup as some of us tend to lean to.

I envision it went down like when Dana Andrews passed the runes to Niall MacGinnis in Curse of the Demon/Night Of the Demon (1957).

I do not for a split second believe that Reyna set this up.
The FBI and BATF appeared at the scene as if teleported.
Reyna was a little fish in the big picture.
He will be the one thrown under the bus or doing a Seth Rich.

I'm thinking more of a "Vince Foster" situation.
