And in order to do this the cops got two guys from out of state, shot them at around the same time, sent them to the hospital, coerced them to confess, then planted a literal bale of weed, and charged their coconspirators with the homicide as arranged in advance.

Seems like a lot of work but yes. If I were one of those dudes I sure wouldn't immediately confess and stick to it unless I was being bribed. Any lawyer could get reasonable doubt now

Damn. I can't believe I said that.

I don't know how else to characterize the belief that three black men from New Orleans would carry out a hit for the Dallas Police Department in exchange for a "bribe" and fail to implicate police after being shot, arrested and charged with capital murder.

I don’t see why possibly defendIng himself with a gun during a hit attempt by these other people would suddenly prove that they weren’t set up by the cops to do it.

For one thing, why was he armed in the first place? Why did he have enough weed to keep the apartment building stoned for five years? If it was planted, how did the cops prevent anyone from seeing them plant it? Why haven't the men implicated the cops? How do I prove a negative?

The first question seems to be a silly question to ask of anyone who lives in Texas, regardless of their race or background.
