The prosecutor should spend the rest of his natural life in an 8x12 supermax cell.
This is Duke LaCrosse, but 10x.
Amen, and a bunch of Waco PD.
The lawsuits are going to bankrupt the city and county.
I think Tommy Witherspoon, the reporter, might be mathematically impaired.
“only about one-third of those originally arrested in the Twin Peaks incident are still facing charges.”
“On that day, 177 people were arrested”
So 1/3 of 177 would be about 59.
“leaving 38 still under indictment”
38 x 3 would be 114.
114 =/= 177
59 =/= 38
Let’s try ‘only between 1/4 and 1/5 of those originally arrested ...’
or
‘less than a quarter of those originally arrested...’
Of the 177, I believe only about 154 were indicted.
No, the governor is making all the taxpayers of Texas cover the bill. He’s given close to a million dollars to the county thus far to cover their bills.
They have destroyed many Bikers lives.
Businesses’ lost.
Get ready to pay.
I quoted what you quoted him as having written. And he clearly said "arrested", not "indicted".
Reporters have always been capable of embarrassing themselves - I won't post my most glaring error in my youth - but in the old days, real papers had copy editors to keep reporters out of trouble (most of the time). Copy editors are history, and now all reporters have to live with their fumbles.
Where do they get their jobs and money back?
Wait a minute. I recall a vehement poster who said all bikers are criminals. How can this be?
I was trying to recall that crackpot from back when.
...........lol, I’m an Abbot supporter just not on this.
But, you just have to understand Texas Politics. Namely, the Baptist’s in Waco STILL enjoy limitless power in Austin in the legislature AND they have a HUGE ally in Governor Abbott.
So, it was and is a given that the State will bail their asses out of this sling. I hope Abbott gets some heat for it next election even though I will still vote for him. HIs conservative rating has to be in the nineties.
Subhuman ping. In before (well, you know who) . . .
Hope your spirit is better with the warmer weather.
Bttt.
5.56mm
Reyna should be drawn & quartered and his grandchildren in need of police protection.
The arrogance of these government a**holes knows no bounds.
Remember this huge injustice the next time you are called for jury duty.
Yes, however bad Abbott is, he's still better than Lupe the Lesbian.
