Sometimes, a guy just has to relax in la casa de calaboose

Man uses fists to break into McLennan County Lockup

In the high speed catch-and-release world of professional tournament corrections, some defendants set new records daily. Consider this most recent exploit of a feisty young man from Waco, busily perfecting his fistic reputation for alleged assaultive behavior.

Now comes Gary Dale Clark. A man initially charged with a minor assault in the municipal court of Waco Texas. That charge, Assault by Physical Contact, was filed 1/6/2011 and he was released with a notice to appear about 10 hours later.

At the same time, 1/6/2011, Mr. Clark caught an additional charge of assault causes bodily injury for which he received a $5,000 bond. On 1/26/2011, Jail magistrate Raymond Britton authorized a $10,000 Personal Recognizance bond as Mr. Clark had been languishing in the county jail for all of 20 days.



Upon release, Mr. Clark promptly returned to the bosom of society and committed the offense of Assualt Family Violence for which he was booked into the McLennan County Jail on 1/27/2011 at 22:37 hrs., only a short time later.
