Buzbee is a self- promoting publicity- seeking CLOWN, and many here will see that.

I don't think he has to be in this case. He's just got to be Rusty Hardin...
I didn't see any mention of the latest from Hardin, so I'll post it here.

Now, in response to media inquiries, Mr. Buzbee has abandoned his promise altogether and, in his words, will go ‘elsewhere to provide his evidence to investigative authorities.’“His latest excuse for failing to go to law enforcement is also his lamest. Anyone who has dealt with HPD, as I have for many years, would know that Mr. Buzbee’s suggestion that the Department would overlook legitimate complaints based upon a family connection of one of its officers is ludicrous. It is also insulting to the dedicated professionals at HPD and to common sense. Mr. Buzbee’s claimed fear of HPD’s partiality is inconsistent with his prior praise for the Department’s response to the burglary of his home during his recent mayoral campaign. . . .
“I would respectfully suggest that Mr. Buzbee’s failure to go to law enforcement does not result from some baseless fear that HPD will not fairly investigate. Instead, it is from the knowledge that his parade of anonymous allegations could not survive the rigorous inquiry of trained investigators or the need to attest to the truth of the allegations under oath.
“For our part, we will continue to learn about the cases in any way that we can. We and Deshaun will always remain available to any law enforcement or regulatory agency who desires our cooperation. Apparently, Mr. Buzbee is unwilling to do the same.”
Like I said earlier, IMO, the woman who gave the SI interview, who is not represented by Buzbee, is the most damaging to Watson IMO. She wanted no part of the Buzbee clown-show. I don't blame her. [Reply]

She had not ruled out legal action, though. The accusations of having an ulterior motive still apply. [Reply]

Now Hardin wants to make threats to the accuser. I swear he’s the worlds worst attorney
Statement from Deshaun Watson’s attorney, Rusty Hardin, about the filing of a police report today concerning Watson: “We welcome this long overdue development. Now we will learn the identity of at least one accuser. We will fully cooperate with the Houston Police Department.”

In a statement, attorney Tony Buzbee said other criminal complaints against Deshaun Watson “will follow ... in Houston and other jurisdictions and with other agencies.” He also says he filed case No. 22 against Watson on Friday. pic.twitter.com/RO9yvNQltx
