WACO II: Houston Lawyer Retracts Accusation

 http://www.agingrebel.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Looney-wide.jpg

A Houston lawyer named Paul Looney (above) retracted a press release he issued yesterday that had alleged prisoners rounded up after the Twin Peaks massacre two weeks ago were being coerced into signing a statement that the police “had the right to arrest the inmate and that he/she will not file a lawsuit against McLennan County and/or the City of Waco.”

Looney’s initial release appears to have been a publicity stunt. In this afternoon’s release, issued about 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time, Looney congratulated himself for reaching a “a reasonable bond…with only minor conditions” for his clients, a married couple named William English and Morgan Allen English

In the last paragraph of this afternoon’s release, Looney states, “It has been determined the District Attorney’s office was not involved in yesterday’s attempt to get defendants to waive their rights of litigation in exchange for bonds.”

  1. Well he seems to be living up to his name. I don't think I could hire an attorney named Looney.

  2. He's either crazy like a fox, and pulled that stunt to stave off such an offer, or he's just looney tunes.

  3. SOP when a govt is at war with its people---
    Increase misinformation, propaganda and communications so that citizens don't know who to trust and what is truth.
