Corey Williams Livetweets D12 trial

Occupy Austin's Corey "Santa's Elf" Williams livetweeted the plea bargain negotiations at the D12 trial today.

  1. Checking in at the courthouse for the #D12 Houston port shutdown cases
  2. We're heading downstairs to a lower court now for the #GulfPort7 case from #D12
  3. Plea deal is a plea down to a class B misdemeanor w/credit time served + court costs #GulfPort7 #D12
  4. Plea deal is a package deal that all 7 must agree to take #GulfPort7 #D12
  5. POI new judge for felony court will probably bring harsher punishments #GulfPort7 #D12
  6. Defendants are trying to come to consensus on taking the deal or not #GulfPort7 #D12
  7. #GulfPort7 Defendants have come to an agreement to take the plea deal #D12
  8. That last tweet brought to you by one of the #GulfPort7 defendants #D12 #lulz
  9. !@iamed_nc can you tell us what charge they are accepting in the pleas?
  10. .@OccupyAustin all 7 agreed to accept the Class B misdemeanor of obstructing a roadway with time served #GulfPort7 #D12
  11. "Basically the people on that road were assholes so we were obstructing an asshole" #occupyallred
  12. ~@iamed_nc Time served meaning no further jail time? & does this affect Eric Marquez's situation at all?
  13. .@OccupyAustin exactly the time already served in jail offsets any new punishments from a no-contest plea #GulfPort7 #D12
  14. .@OccupyAustin Eric's situation is still difficult. This will make things slightly easier but he still may be in jail for a year #GulfPort7
  15. @iamed_nc @OccupyAustin I respect that, and I'm glad it's over, but FUCK I wanted to see Bitch, Dick, and Dork on the stand.
  16. .@rwboland A suit against #APD and City of Austin may still be possible after all the defendant's cases are resolved #GulfPort7 #D12
