Waco Biker Massacre Prosecutions Continue to Fall Apart as Last Set of Original Indictments Dismissed

The cops should be charged with premeditated murder, period.

Nearly four years ago, over 170 people were arrested after a violent altercation outside a meeting of motorcycle club members at the Twin Peaks restaurant in Waco, Texas, was swarmed by police, who had already surrounded the meeting before anything untoward occurred. Nine people were killed and 18 wounded in the melee. This week, the last of the initial set of charges was dropped after a special prosecutorial team didn't like what it saw.

From the start, lawyers and others pointed out that it was very unlikely indeed that all the arrested had committed any crimes at all, and that the initial $1 million bond for all of them charged with a blanket crime of "engaging in organized criminal activity" seemed unreasonably punitive. The police strove in the aftermath to keep a detailed account of what actually happened from reaching the public eye, or that of defense attorneys.

  1. Pretty much par for the course. ANYTHING you say can and WILL BE used against you in a court of "law".

  2. NOBODY will end up convicted of anything after this mongolian clusterfuck.
    And the people MOST in need of a long stint at the gray bar hotel is the DA and EVERY SINGLE BADGEMONKEY involved in this insanity. Sadly the ONLY people besides the ones shot by the cops who will suffer any further harm from this is the taxpayer. They are going to be paying out multimillion dollar settlements for this for DECADES.
