More Methamphetamine News
Anyone remember Damon Chapman? He was the guy that was convicted last year be a Wise County Jury and sentenced to 40 years in prison. He also made news shortly thereafter when he allegedly tried to escape from the Wise County Jail and was captured in a nearby residential subdivision.
Well, the Fort Worth Court of Appeals has reversed his conviction. (The opinion is here butI suspect you'll get bored with it very quickly).

Atleast you're happy about it.
Isn't it amazing?!!
Don't you know that is gonna make Fostel happy! Interesting that the prosecution didn't file an answer on the Motion to Suppress. Who was the attorney for Mr. Chapman?
Are you kidding me? If I'm not mistaken, I believe this is the guy whom they were serving a warrant on and discovered they were flushing methamphetamines down the toilet and it was coming out on the ground, right by the officers feet! WHAT HAPPENED????
This is frustrating.
If I read the court decision correctly, what happened is the first officers on the scene did a good job, but the ball got dropped when the DPS narcotics taskforce showed up on the scene. As usual, they screwed it up by not getting a search warrant for the "shop". LAZY! The part of the decision that I had a problem with is it hinted that the officers did not have a reason to be in the back yard. any time law enforcement serves a felony warrant, officers secure the entire outside of the building being checked. Just because there is no back door dosen't mean the wanted person cant climb out a window.
ONe more addict/loser out out on the street
