Fearless forecast: This thing is such a clusterf**k that none of the bikers will be convicted of anything. Once again we have another Nifong wannabe.

Congratulations, Waco. You are now the most corrupt city in Texas.

“Congratulations, Waco. You are now the most corrupt city in Texas.”

I understand the number biker gang wars in Texas is down substantially since Twin Peaks ...

Not only will no one be convicted but evidence is being and will continue to be with held for years.

And we could reduce corruption in DC dramatically by murdering a dozen or so congresscriminals in broad daylight as well! Thanks, TG. I am starting to come around to your way of thinking.

The analogy you are trying to express would be more like the congressmen pulling guns on each other during a house session!

Dallas attorney Don Tittle, who represents 15 bikers suing Reyna, said that although district attorneys usually can't be sued that immunity is lost, he said, when a prosecutor "steps into the role of the police."

If this is backed up by statute or case law, then Reyna and the state is in trouble. Doesn't matter how evil the eeeeevil bikers were. It seems plainer and plainer that this was a dragnet to somehow avenge the evil of the eeeeevil bikers, rather than to address a specific crime.

That would be a win/win.

“I understand the number biker gang wars in Texas is down substantially since Twin Peaks ...”

That's because they've all been in jail and/or trying to get themselves out of jail, and getting lawyered up to sue Reyna. I hope the city has to file for bankruptcy in order to pay off the coming judgments against it and it's “law enforcement morons.” Then maybe a new group will be brought in that understands what the Constitution says about due process. I don't condone biker violence, but I also think that everyone who runs afoul of the law deserves to be treated equally.

Is anyone’s case actually scheduled for trial at this point?

I doubt it. This has to be dragged out until even the Internet has forgotten about it. A court date would mean “discovery” and the authorities can’t have that.

Reminds of that old comic where the cowboy is holding a very angry rattlesnake, and his friend says, Okay. So you snuck up on it and grabbed it. How you gonna let go of it, now?

Waco has one big ol’ handful of rattlers.

Just a crazy coincidence that 90% of bikers are conservative voters.

Nothing to see here.

Somehow this shouldn’t be allowed to just go invisible. The Texas treasury shouldn’t be able to invisibly pay to make it go away. Reyna should be forced into the spotlight to do some ‘splaining.
