Waco Judge Agrees to Let Most Bikers Go If They Sign Contract Not to Sue for Wrongful Arrest
Washington Weekly News ^ | May 31, 2015 | Looney and Conrad Law Firm

Posted on 06/01/2015 5:57:56 AM PDT by bgill

“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.”

“I do not get any satisfaction from contemplating the massive damage LE may suffer. But, they brought it down upon themselves.”

Ditto.

Hmmmmm?! What are your opinions, TG?

Let me guess: "These guilty, evil bikers found a legal loophole, and it only makes sense that the pristine authorities would want to find a way to avoid problems. Why are you defending criminals and killers, momtothree?"

Every day the truth becomes more obvious. The chance to get ahead of this has just about evaporated.

This is not getting any main stream media coverage? Makes me wonder if any of the bikers were African. Because we know all too well if a cop shoots an African, then of course it's just cold blooded murder. </sarc

Meanwhile three of those arrested have already been given reduced bonds and released without any histrionics from their attorney....go figure.

So, shining the light of malfeasance and improper behavior by authorities is 'histrionics'?

Don’t worry, they will eventually collect a MINIMUM of six-figures EACH. If not seven.

Crap! I knew I should have become a biker.

I don’t know how their tax system works, but I hope the City is bankrupted and the residents have to sell their homes and property to pay their taxes.

“Meanwhile three of those arrested have already been given reduced bonds and released” - MT

Well that is almost 2% of those rounded-up. What is everyone so jazzed up about? At this rate, in another 10 weeks, 10% of the bikers arrested will be out of jail. sheesh...

Right MT, why can’t people just cool their jets?

Too many coincidence to be unplanned, number one being the timing to correspond with the lefts big push for more gun control.

A report, that took months to produce, that claims biker gangs are using the military as training ground just by coincidence comes out at the same time.

The mass murder by terrorist here in Texas is a bust then ISIS comes out with a list of states to target that would be key states in a push for more gun control.

Unless ISIS has some interest in the gun control issue, ISIS naming those particular states to target wasn’t just a coincidence.

A couple of years ago Obama, out of the wild blue yonder and completely without context to anything being discussed at the time, suddenly mention the need for more gun control and shazzam as if on cue we got the Kenya mall attack and low and behold Obama went silent on gun control.

At some point it stops being “just a coincidence”.

I reached that point a long time ago.

The same thing occurred to me. I wondered if they signed anything. In addition there were several bond hearings scheduled for this week.

Another coincidence that right about the time the initial hearings begin, Jade Helm will be beginning right down the road in place and ready to move in if/when ordered. The usurper did declare Texas as hostile.

The fact remains that bonds are getting reduced and people are getting released from jail in this case without resorting to the type of grandstanding the aptly named attorney in this story resorts to.

“Well that is almost 2% of those rounded-up.”

Which is why we have expected more released soon.

Some have the stone to stand up against governmental overreach and abuse. Some don’t.

If that be “grandstanding” I say, MORE!!

Shhh, citizen! One should NEVER say ANYTHING bad about the authorities. They are always blameless, and if you say anything bad about them, YOU HATE CIVILIZATION!

Well, I got that one half right: high bails until somebody squealed.

I didn’t figure the local law would use a tactic as slimy as forcing people to sign away their rights to get out of jail.

Waco needs an enema.

We? Who is this "we"? Use of the plural pronoun makes one wonder what is behind the screen name.

(And PLEASE save keystrokes about "name calling." Everyone gets that.
