Jacob Lee Jake Rhyne, 39, was one of nine people killed in the violent May 17, 2015 shootout at a Twin Peaks restaurant in Waco, Texas. The confrontation involved members of the Bandidos and Cossacks motorcycle clubs and law enforcement officers who returned fire after being shot at. Autopsy reports say Rhyne died of gunshot wounds to the neck and abdomen.

The meeting at Twin Peaks had been called to discuss political rights for motorcyclists but escalated into a large-scale exchange of gunfire that left nine dead and 18 wounded or injured. In the wake of the incident, 177 people were arrested and detained, most on allegations related to organized crime; the case generated extensive legal challenges and civil suits against the Waco Police Department. Autopsy reports were released, but it remained unclear who fired the fatal shots that killed Rhyne.

Did anyone who knew Jake Rhyne or witnessed the Twin Peaks gathering come forward with details about his movements that afternoon?
