Sheriffs’ trial finishes

HOUSTON — A federal pro
secutor urged a jury to show law
officers they are not above the law
by convicting three former Texas
lawmen on charges they water-
tortured prisoners to obtain con
fessions.
‘The defendants were success
ful at muting the screams of their
victims by sticking towels over
their mouths, but I submit to you
this case is screaming for a verdict
and that verdict is guilty,” Assis
tant U.S. Attorney Scott Wood
ward said in final arguments
Tuesday.
A six-man, six-woman jury was
to begin deliberations in the case
Wednesday at 9:30 a.m. CDT.
Former San Jacinto County
Sheriff James “Humpy” Parker
and former deputies Carl Lee and
John Glover faced prison sent
ences ranging between 12 and 14
years on conspiracy and civil
rights charges if convicted.
A fourth defendant, former de
puty Floyd Baker, had his trial se
vered from the others’ by U.S.
District Judge James DeAnda on
grounds Baker had a conflict of
interest with the other defen
dants.
Baker surprised his codefen
dants by testifying Monday he and
they tortured prisoners, but that
he was only taking orders from
them and had no criminal intent.
During the two-week trial, six
former prisoners in the rural San
Jacinto County jail testified the
defendants handcuffed them to
chairs, draped towels over their
faces and nearly drowned them
with water poured over the
towels.
Other law enforement officials
backed up that testimony.
“These defendants took the
U.S. Constitution and wadded it
up and tossed it,” Woodward
argued.
Parker’s defense attorney, Tom
Taylor, said the convicted crimin
als had selfish motives for testifing
against the law officers who put
them behind bars.
“They all have something to
gain by conviction of Mr. Parker,”
Taylor said •

“Were meeting with the
leadership of different employee

several meetings on cost
restructuring the company.”
Hicks would not disclose the
nature of the meetings, but cost
restructuring often includes man

concessions on wages and other
benefits.
“Well probably have some
