Twin Peaks must have “deep pockets.”

The Rodriguez family is probably piggy-backing on the Don Carlos v. Twin Peaks lawsuit. Apparently Don Carlos has an excellent lawyer! If Twin Peaks is liable for Don Carlos’ loss of business it can certainly be argued that they are liable for a lot of other bad things, that occurred on May 17, 2015, including the death of Jesse Rodriguez. There’s probably no money in suing the Waco PD even if they killed Jesse Rodriguez due to malice or incompetence. On the other hand, Twin Peaks may settle out-of-court for a tidy sum.

Similar legal theories in both cases, becuase the claims have essentially the same basis (negligence being a proximate cuase of a gunfight). I don't believe it is the same lawyers ... looking it up ....

The Pastrano Law Firm, in Houstin, is representing the Rodriguez family in the action.
