Brickbat: Texas Injustice

The Bexar County Sheriff's Office in Texas charged former deputy Clemente Lopez Jr. with murder after he admitted to allowing inmates to violently assault and kill inmate Francisco Bazan in his cell at the Bexar County Jail. According to an arrest affidavit, Lopez opened Bazan's cell door, allowing three inmates to enter and attack him by kicking his face and smashing his head against the concrete. Lopez reportedly told the inmates, "Don't make it bad," and watched the assault without intervening. Lopez, who resigned after speaking with investigators, reportedly admitted to allowing inmates to assault other inmates on at least three other occasions.

QUALIFIED IMMUNITY
I bet he hopes his guards will be less permissive.
RIP Opie.
The way that I heard shit was that Francisco Bazan had ALL of this shit cumming to him, since he was the Vice Potus of the local jail-gang, and was a stickler for protocol and for obedience to the (mostly unwritten) local jail-gang cunts-tits-tuition, and so Francisco Bazan REFUSED TO DISOBEY said local jail-gang cunts-tits-tuition, by refusing to obey the local jail-gang outgoing POTUS's "stolen-erections-theory-based" cummands to cumpletely monkey-wrench jail-gang "democracy"! And there ya have shit!!!
In cuntclusion, I would also add... "Hang Mike Pence"!
Need to know the immigration status of the victims. If they were illegal then there was no wrongdoing because illegals don't have any human rights.
