WACO JUDGE AGREES TO LET MOST BIKERS GO – IF THEY SIGN A CONTRACT VOWING NOT TO SUE FOR WRONGFUL ARREST

“It appears the public defenders office in McLennan County is involved in this scurrilous activity,” said Paul Looney, a Houston attorney with Looney & Conrad, P.C. “I’ve never seen anything like the lawlessness that the authorities have perpetrated on these people and now to add insult to injury they are trying to cover their own tracks in exchange for bond.”

Stay in jail and make several hundred thousand, or go home?

[IF THEY SIGN A CONTRACT VOWING NOT TO SUE FOR WRONGFUL ARREST]

That opens up a can of worms.

Now, just why in the world would a judge cut a deal like this? Hmmm, I’ll have to think about this for awhile.

There are not enough public defenders to represent those who’ve already requested them (75+). There have already been articles where the city has acknowledged that prosecuting these cases will take tremendous expense.

They are ripe for lawsuits for overcharging possibly 100 or more individuals.

Now they are in CYA mode.

One biker has already filed suit. He's one of the ones who was released on $25K bail, then re-arrested and held in lieu of $1M bail after the black lives matter crowd complained that the white bikers were being given favorable treatment (low bail) relative to blacks elsewhere.

The whole thing's turning into a cluster duck.

There is another choice. Let them all go into the desert and fight each other. The winners would be responsible for all burial expenses.

Maybe these bikers should’ve looted and burned a few buildings down like in Baltimore where no one was arrested for doing so.
