Everything I hear about this case suggests that the way the establishment is handling it is disgraceful.
Here, the affidavit of probable cause was deficient, and this guy should have been released. But he wasn’t, because if the judge ruled it was deficient, it would have exposed the county to liability for damages. So the judge made this wholly unjustified ruling.
If the actual definitions of these words “organized street gang”, etc. is to be used it DOES seem to include the police as they are guilty of every crime this person is accused of and yet only the civilian stands before the bar.
Help save America! Support organized crime! Get a neck tattoo!
Decent points. Though carried to its logical conclusion it means the members of any large enough crowd/gang/mob will be immune to arrest and prosecution.
"You did not furnish any information to Judge (Pete) Peterson that my client committed any crime, did you?" Jackson asked.Well, that's sure enough to justify the judge's decision to support the arrest and detention, subject to posting bond.Chavez said, "No, sir."
No allegation of crime. NONE.

Oops, read on, as they say, although I have to wonder why the detective didn't answer truthfully under direct examination.
"He committed the offense of engaging in organized criminal activity by associating with a criminal street gang and showing up with other members of an organized street gang where a melee ensued, involving another organized street gang. Is that right?" Luce asked."That is correct," the detective replied.
Key takeaway for all the biker subculture acolytes and their legal advisers.
