Defense attorney alleges in motion that DA Reyna being investigated by FBI re Twin Peaks
WACO -- Dallas attorney Clint Broden alleges in a motion in the case of his client, Twin Peaks biker Matthew Clendennen, that McLennan County District Attorney Abel Reyna is under federal investigation for selective prosecution for political gain.
Broden filed motions Friday morning questioning Reyna’s credibility as a prosecutor in the Twin Peaks shootout cases, saying the district attorney made decisions on which defendants to prosecute based on his political interests.
“On Oct. 18, 2017, the defense received what appears to be very credible information indicating that Reyna has been, and may continue to be, under investigation by the Austin division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Texas,” the motion states.
“The information received by the defense also indicates that at least one aspect of the federal investigation goes directly to Reyna’s credibility and his making decisions whether to prosecute or not prosecute individuals based upon what he perceives to be his political interest.”
