Morons, All.
It must be too much to expect of reality to have any rationality whatsoever. Smelling worse by the day.
How many people were shot with a Harley, punched by an SUV, or stabbed with an F-150? There is no lawful excuse for seizing private property merely because it was in the parking lot during a shooting. This is an immoral act, and I cannot imagine that it is motivated by anything other than government greed and a culture of lawless government. We need to get rid of civil asset forfeiture laws.
These are not nice people. But according to the article many of them seem to be being held for having nasty bumper stickers.
I am betting most of these guys get their stuff back. And they go free.
What a mess.
(And it’s not flaring on the motorcycle. It’s faring. Stupid reporters.)
Any charges for murder or assault and battery at Twin Peaks? I don’t see any listed.
“Conpiring to become a bullet-catcher”
The more the police explain, the more it stinks.
It’s interesting that more information comes from property seizure documents than has come directly from Waco law enforcement. So much for openness and transparency.
I did note that there didn’t seem to be any charges listed as filed against the owners of the vehicles.
It looks almost like the vehicles were ‘arrested for possession of gang related markings and memorabilia’ as were the people involved.
If a court throws out Waco’s ‘gang participation’ premise, it looks like most of the arrests and seizures will fall apart.
It still doesn’t smell right...
pick ups? they’re seizing pick ups?
tell me it ain’t so
what crime is so heinous to deserve having a pickup seized?
I call it state sanctioned Murder.
