NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - Federal authorities appear poised to take the prosecution of accused killer and Costco carjacker Tyrese Harris away from Orleans Parish District Attorney Jason Williams’ office.
The Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office confirmed that federal authorities placed a detainer on Harris late Monday night (Feb. 7), claiming custody of the 18-year-old defendant for the intention of prosecuting him in federal court.
Williams’ office has not yet made charging decisions on numerous allegations brought against Harris since his arrest Sunday by New Orleans police. But the local DA is on record last Nov. 10 refusing an armed robbery case against Harris submitted by the NOPD after an alleged car theft at gunpoint that occurred in August 2021.

Feds probably want to do an even worse job than Jason Williams on this one. Probably gonna try a holistic midnight basketball approach.

Here is the federal carjacking statute:
Seems like that could apply to most carjackings.
quote:
18 U.S.C. 2119.
Whoever, with the intent to cause death or serious bodily harm takes a motor vehicle that has been transported, shipped, or received in interstate or foreign commerce from the person or presence of another by force and violence or by intimidation, or attempts to do so, shall--
(1) be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 15 years, or both,
(2) if serious bodily injury (as defined in section 1365 of this title, including any conduct that, if the conduct occurred in the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States, would violate section 2241 or 2242 of this title) results, be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 25 years, or both, and
(3) if death results, be fined under this title or imprisoned for any number of years up to life, or both, or sentenced to death.
Seems like that could apply to most carjackings.

That’s an extremely odd turn of phrase. As long as it’s a violation of federal law (and at this point, damned near any crime is arguably also a violation of federal law), the feds can concurrently prosecute under the separate sovereigns doctrine. Now, usually either the feds or the state decide not to waste their resources doing so if the other has picked up the case, but it happens. Neither can “take” a case from the other.

How does this work? Do they have charge him with a federal crime?
Posted on 2/8/22 at 9:29 am to Chad504boy
Wrong. He’s not single handedly doing anything. There’s a whole cabal of leftists fueling and orchestrating this shite.

I just don’t get why Williams is allowed to make all of these terrible decisions. Most of them directly contradict his job title.

Can't the state attorneys office charge and prosecuted them too? Where's Landry?

They strongly encourage him to attend the federal midnight basketball league as opposed to the local one.

I mean, he's doing exactly what he said he would do during his campaign. And you still elected him.
He's bulletproof.

Exactly. Not sure why anyone thinks the Biden department of justice will do a better job on this one.

Article V, Section 26 of the Louisiana constitution explicitly states that "no district attorney or assistant district attorney shall appear, plead, or in any way defend or assist in defending any criminal prosecution or charge. A violation of this Paragraph shall be cause for removal."
I guess he technically can't "in any way defend or assist in defending" a prosecution or charge that is never brought.
