The indictments weren't made public, and the identities of the 106 suspects weren't released.From your link, many of those indicted have been identified. I'd like to read a few of the indictments.
Grand jury indicts 106 in Waco biker shooting | Dallas Morning News | November 10, 2015 08:03 PM
John Wilson, the president of the McLennan County Cossacks, and his son, Jacob Wilson, were both indicted Tuesday. Wilson said that he had "full confidence" neither he nor his son would be convicted and that he would refuse a plea bargain if offered.The indictment "doesn't mean much," he said, adding he believes that since the indictments were done in such a short amount of time that they were "a cookie-cutter deal."
Reyna was likely emboldened by the decision in the Pilkington and Weathers cases (Tenth Court of Appeals Case No. 10-15-00218-CR), and also, as a matter of law, an indictment represents a finding of probable cause a crime was committed. The challenge to indictment comes in the trial process, whereas a challenge to accusation can be had in an examining trial. Once indicted, examining trial can no longer be obtained, and bond conditions can be maintained - that is, there is no right to have bond and bond conditions lifted.
The way I see it, this move is just kicking the can a little farther down the road.
I see that Clendennen was indicted. That ought to get Broden's knickers in a knot.
And, still waiting for a decision from Texas' highest criminal court on the gag order. The case has been submitted for decision for over a month now.
John Wilson nailed it. Cookie cutter probable cause generates cookie cutter indictment. Shame on that Grand Jury for failing to demand individualized probable cause.
“...John Wilson, the president of the McLennan County Cossacks, and his son, Jacob Wilson, were both indicted Tuesday. Wilson said that he had “full confidence” neither he nor his son would be convicted and that he would refuse a plea bargain if offered....”

And THAT is the proper course of action to take...REFUSE to take any plea deals. Make Reyna actually PROVE his bogus charges.
The latter might make situations involving seizures and further disposition of seized property a mite uncomfortable.
