How? Just show up to the hearing date after having filed the bill of information that morning and go, "Oh yea. My bad, Judge. Anyway, John Smith is being arraigned on charges of X, Y, and Z."
PS they can still be charged. But they're out walking.

How do you remove a DA?

What is the newest factor introduced into the equation? Not the NOPD.
Nopd being far lower staffed - an issue with quality and gotten much worse.
Conviction rates never being particularly great… often between 50-50 or peaking up to 2 out of 3. So there were issues before. Not paying for trash trials isn’t a terrible thing. Charging bad cases isn’t a win.
Also, the DA is an issue. No doubt. Totally agree.
Crazy to think both sides have hands in this.
I was one of the victims of an attempted car jacking last month. In front of a business. Had cameras, and the whole thing on camera. I called the business alongside calling 911. They were ready for officers to swing over after they interviewed me. Didn’t happen. Next morning they called the police to proactively offer. Nope. Didn’t take it. NOPD didn’t get the video for over 24 hours and that was when the detective finally called me to follow up on my report and I gave them the video I had acquired from the business… the whole system is broken right now.

At minimum this is legal malpractice.

No. DAs don't really have clients, in any technical sense.

I've not looked into his case at all. How realistic is it than Williams is actually going to get convicted and sent to club fed?

Highly possible.

With all of the job openings across the country, anyone remaining in New Orleans is an absolute lunatic. That place is pure AIDS

I guarantee he could be convicted, do his time, run for office again and get elected easily.
NOLA is a shithole that will be lost forever. It's done.
And BR is the same before you retards start throwing that around.

Sure, technically I guess.
But when it comes down to brass tacks, the DA has one client: the people of the state. And by failing to prosecute in a timely fashion, thereby allowing 150 accused perps to walk free, he has failed the people of the state, his client.

Last January, Jamon Edwards was arrested in New Orleans, accused of shooting and killing a man on France Street.
He was booked into jail in early February — his bond set at just under $500,000
From an article I dug up:
Police obtained a warrant to arrest Edwards the day of the killing, and they publicly identified him as a suspect the day before he surrendered. Edwards was also booked on an unrelated warrant accusing him of battering a former girlfriend in front of three children in Algiers on Aug. 7.
His bail was set at $460,500 on Wednesday. He faces mandatory life imprisonment if convicted of murdering Jones.

No, one can argue that he has failed his political constituents, but the citizens of Orleans Parish are not his clients. I don't even believe one could reasonably argue that Orleans Parish as a political entity is his client. That's just not how the office of the District Attorney is structured. It's intentionally built to be "independent".

Is this the big report Lee zurich is supposed to drop tonight? I’m assuming travers just beat him to the punch.
