All charges dropped in 2015 Waco biker shootout that left 9 people dead

[CaptQuint]

Prosecutors say no one will be punished for the 2015 shootout between rival biker gangs in Waco, Texas, that left nine people dead and at least 20 injured.

McLennan County District Attorney Barry Johnson said in a statement Tuesday that he's dropping all remaining charges, and that any further effort to prosecute would be a "waste of time, effort and resources."

Law enforcement officials arrested 177 bikers in the May 2015 shooting outside a Twin Peaks restaurant and charged 155 with engaging in organized criminal activity.

Former District Attorney Abel Reyna dropped charges against all but 24 of the bikers and chose to re-indict them on a riot charge. These are the 24 cases Johnson is dropping.

Only one case was prosecuted in court and that ended in a mistrial.

Shocking (sarcasm) since they didn't want the ballistic evidence out to show that most that were shot were fired by the police. What it is about Waco. Branch Davidians and then this.

I understand the manager of this Twin Peaks restaurant that set up this "peaceful meeting" between rival motorcycle gangs over lunch to settle their differences was promoted to Corporate. (Sarcasm)

Waco is a shithole. Not Midland shithole but still one none the less

Naw. Waco's cool. Midland's the shithole. Except for the chance to get filthy rich.
