Biker arrested at Twin Peaks shootout in Waco sues for $350 million
A Brenham woman described as “law-abiding and cooperative” who was arrested with her husband after the May 2015 Twin Peaks shootout is seeking $350 million in a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday.
Morgan English, a 32-year-old bank teller and mother of one, alleges in the suit that she committed no crime, was wrongfully arrested and improperly jailed for 16 days under $1 million bond after the incident that left nine dead and dozens injured.
English and her husband, William, a military veteran and a welder, are not among the 155 bikers who have been indicted on identical engaging in organized criminal activity charges.
The lawsuit, filed in an Austin federal court, names the city of Waco, McLennan County, former Waco police chief Brent Stroman, McLennan County District Attorney Abel Reyna, Waco police detective Manuel Chavez and unnamed government agents as defendants.
