The Justice of the Peace Needs An Attorney?
Have any of you ever heard of a Judge or a Justice of the Peace needing and Attorney in the aftermath of the Charging of Defendants?
I have not.
From Aging Rebel:
At the end of June McLennan County, the ethical cesspool that surrounds Waco, hired a good old local boy attorney named David Deaconson to represent Justice of the Peace W.H. “Pete” Peterson.
Peterson is the mooncalf who decided to charge 177, or 182, people he knew nothing about with engaging in organized criminal activity in order “to send a message.” No. No rational person knew what he was talking about.
In an interview with the Waco Tribune-Herald, he sort of explained, “We had nine people killed in our community. These people just came in, and most of them were from out of town. Very few of them were from in town.”
There is no need to speculate why Peterson might need a lawyer. Waco will explain that very soon, right after it releases the video and ballistics evidence and the autopsy reports.
At the time the County hired Deaconson (photo above), he claimed defense lawyers were “harassing” Peterson. He announced he was giving the county a break on price by charging only $250 an hour instead of his usual $280.
Deaconson is also the City Attorney for the grim Waco suburb of Lacy Lakeview and an adjunct professor for Baylor University School of Law where he teaches the art of the “mock trial.”
According to the Tribune-Herald, Deaconson is serving as a “liaison” between “biker defense attorneys” and “the courts.” Whatever that turns out to mean, it may come as a surprise to most of the defense attorneys.GO READ THE WHOLE THING.
