Attorney General Liz Murrill faces 16 felony charges after sending letters to New Orleans officials warning them of job loss if they moved forward with a special election for clerk of court — charges she calls a “political witch hunt.” Her bond is set at $400,000, but the Louisiana Supreme Court quickly halted proceedings on her motion. Governor Jeff Landry has launched a state police probe and vowed to pardon her, calling the situation unprecedented. Legal experts weigh in on whether her letters crossed a line, while whispers suggest Murrill and Landry may wield outsized influence over New Orleans’ future — through the courts and funding.
