What sort of reporting is this? A very long article and nowhere are the charges that these people are being held on listed. The lawyers talks about years of court but why? If there are no charges how do you go to court? If there are charges why not stated?
Maybe you remember journalism, as I do. It's rare to find it these days. We who wish to know what is going on have to do our own digging. All 177 who were arrested on 5/17/15 and held (many still being held) under $1,000,000 bond are charged with violating this Texas law
That is the only charge that has been brought against anyone. It is a RICO type law.
