Biker attorney seeks to replace judges, demands immediate release of clients
Waco Tribune ^ | 5/26/15 | TOMMY WITHERSPOON

An attorney for two men arrested in the May 17 Twin Peaks shootout between rival bikers says his clients are being held illegally and is seeking to replace all McLennan County judges connected to the case.

Austin attorney Adam Reposa alleges in motions filed Tuesday that the charging documents filed against his clients, and the 168 others jailed in the chaotic melee, are legally insufficient.

He also claims that the $1 million bonds are unreasonably oppressive and that the judge who set them and the judges who, so far, have not reduced them have shown bias and should be recused.

Reposa represents Jimmy Pond and Thomas Paul Landers. He said Pond, a mechanic from Hays County, is the sole supporter of his family, which includes a disabled wife and autistic son.

Besides the recusal motion, Reposa filed an application for writ of habeas corpus, alleging a client is being held illegally and without proper cause, and a motion for emergency release so Pond can go home and take care of his family.

After the shootout, in which nine were killed and 18 wounded, Reposa said officials “commandeered” the Waco Convention Center as a makeshift holding area while they tried to sort out the magnitude of the event.

I do not recall posting anything to you.

Are you posting from two different accounts now?

” Three killed by bikers however his story was not credible to me at all. “

ConservativeTreehouse said it was the most credible account so far. They also said it matched the available videos.

“I do not recall posting anything to you.”

As several of your comrades have posted, this is a public forum.

It is. But posting from multiple accounts is frowned on.

Must be. He calls him ‘the Nomad’.

LOL! You dudes really break me up!

More evidence of possible leftist leanings, since we on the right tend not to laugh at being called a liar. The left, however, considers it a badge of honor.

You are a liar, and you laugh when you are called on it. I will enjoy watching you zotted. THAT'S what I will laugh at.

“His “dog” or whoever was first to fall then, bla bla bla. “

The first was “Richie” Jordan, shot point blank after fisticuffs with a Bandido Sergeant at Arms [autopsy: head wound]. A handgun at point blank range can inflict a head wound.

The second was “Diesel” Boyett [also head wounds].

The third was “Dog” Russell [head and chest wounds].

This accounts for three bodies in the parking lot. The Cossack witness can not be criticized for not hanging around to see the other six . . .

Can you explain why this eyewitness wasn't arrested...

It's a reasonable question. He might have been arrested and released after agreeing to cooperate...he might be an under cover or an informant...maybe he removed his cut and slipped out in the confusion..there are a number of ways he could have avoided getting thrown in jail.

Can you explain why so many of those arrested aren't cooperating with police?

I did not offer to help you any more. God and the whole board knows I tried. You refused my offer for help and it expired.

Patiently waiting for the lightning.

Ditto all that...and for FReepers to NOT question this...is very odd.

I don't think anyone can do that without knowing exactly what kind of "cooperation" the police are wanting.

From his account:

“We took off running. We scattered. Three of our guys went down instantly. They caught a couple more that tripped and fell, and Bandidos were shooting at them.””

That makes five.
