Waco – A criminal district court judge is accused of picking and choosing what part of the law is convenient over that which is not in a murder case stemming from a biker shootout that occurred in this city more than three years ago.
Lawyers for a Twin Peaks defendant alleged in court papers that 54thCriminal District Judge Matt Johnson failed to perform his ministerial duty to ensure due process when he refused to quash a superseding indictment for rioting returned by a Grand Jury under the same cause number as the original charge of engaging in organized criminal activity.
They are seeking an order for Johnson to quash the new charge in a writ of mandamus.
Judge Johnson denied Marcus Pilkington, who allegedly struck a biker from a rival motorcycle club with a cudgel before another defendant allegedly shot him on May 17, 2015, the right to object to the form or substance of the amended charge.
---To further complicate matters, the victim Richard Kirschner died as a result of a gunshot wound to one of his buttocks from an assault rifle bullet fired by Waco Police Officer Michael Bucher, a death ruled a homicide by a medical examiner, for which as a police officer he was granted immunity in a previous session of the Grand Jury.
