SGT Daniel Perry was sentenced to 25 years Wednesday for murdering an Austin protester, Garrett Foster.<\/p>\n

On April 7, a Travis County jury found Perry guilty of murder in the July 2020 death of Black Lives Matter protestor Garrett Foster, and not guilty of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for allegedly threatening to drive his vehicle towards another person.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Perry’s attorney defense team responded:<\/p>\n

As part of the appeal we will be able to focus on the evidence that was kept from both the grand jury and trial jury including (1) repeated instances in which Mr. Foster, along with his friends, harassed and terrified other motorists in an effort to take over the streets of Austin and (2) the fact that Mr. Foster was dismissed from the air force for mental health reasons and prohibited by the military from possessing firearms for those same reasons. We expect the appeal will also focus on the allegations from decorated homicide detective David Fugitt that Travis County District Attorney Garza tampered with his grand jury testimony in this case as well as evidence of admitted trial jury misconduct that certainty (sic) could have influenced the ultimate verdict. It is also hoped that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton will now be in a position to initiate an investigation into the criminal witness tampering allegations against Mr. Garza by Detective Fugitt.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Testimony was unanimous that Foster never actually aimed his weapon at Perry, which hurt his defense. Now, I’m not too sure the first two points they raised are really relevant to a self-defense claim – it’s not your place to know if a possible assailant is legally armed or not.\u00a0 But that alleged suppressed evidence is a whole other matter – if true, the DA could be looking at disbarment. Wouldn’t be the first Soros-backed DA to lose their job this month. Texas governor Abbott has promised to pardon Perry preemptively – guess he knows more of the evidence than we do?<\/p>\n

Tonight at 11:59 pm,\u00a0 Title 42 will be allowed to expire.<\/p>\n

First implemented in 2020, Title 42 allows US authorities to swiftly expel would-be migrants attempting to cross the border from Mexico – including those seeking humanitarian asylum – using the Covid-19 pandemic as justification.<\/p>\n

Joe Sanchez, the regional director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, compared the situation to a stampede at a football game – only many times larger.<\/p>\n

“Imagine 60,000 people in one location, and all of a sudden an alert comes on and says there’s a bomb in the building. What happens after that? Chaos\u2026 It’s very hard to control and very hard to manage,” he told the BBC.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Estimates of illegals poised for a run at the border are far higher than 60,000, too – the mayor of El Paso estimates 10,000 there alone.\u00a0 BBC via Yahoo <\/a>\u00a0There were over 11,000 Border Patrol\/illegals encounters Tuesday alone.<\/p>\n

What’s PINO Joe have to say?\u00a0 President Joe Biden put it simply Tuesday: “It’s going to be chaotic for a while.”WJCL.com<\/a>\u00a0 His plan to manage them?<\/p>\n

After more than 11,000 migrants were caught cross<\/a>ing<\/a> the southern border<\/a> on Tuesday, the Biden administration is now preparing a memo that will direct Customs and Border Protection to begin releasing migrants into the U.S. without court dates or the ability to track them, according to three sources familiar with the plans.\u00a0NBC News<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Think Bette Davis said it better in “Three Faces of Eve”: “Fasten your seat belts, it’s going to be a bumpy night”.<\/b><\/p>\n

But fear not: Immigration chief\u00a0 Mayorkas thinks they are on the ball and ready to handle however many (hundreds of ) thousands try to cross.<\/p>\n

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas touted the “effectiveness of our approach” to stem the flow of migration at the US-Mexico border Wednesday, while criticizing Congress for failing to pass legislation to repair “a broken immigration system.”<\/p>\n

And he repeated a direct warning to migrants seeking to enter the U.S., warning that just because Title 42 expires Thursday, that “does not mean our border is open.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, the fella who stood behind our Border Patrol agents and accused them of whipping Haitian immigrants says it’s all hunky-dorey. I feel better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
