WWL TV just led off the 6 o'clock news with this story.

-Supreme Court issued a stay, but "as of 15 minutes the lead prosecutor says there is still valid arrest warrant out"

-Murrill is now following suit against the White, the prosecutor, to get the warrant squashed

-Former Mayor Morial wants to help bring the sides together

Governor should order State Police to arrest White for violating court order.

More befuddling than Temu Trump waging this petty political war is watching the entire board abandon their professed conservative values just to spite an unpopular poster and the only city worth a shite in this whole state.


Hey, maybe you can start a movement for New Orleans to secede from Louisiana, shut down the Causeway and the twinspan, would kinda suck for St. Bernard, but sacrifices have to be made.

Get it going!

But by Friday evening, Murrill said that the special prosecutor handling her case, former New Orleans Criminal Court judge Laurie White, had refused to recall her arrest warrant and $400,000 bond.

An attorney for Murrill, Laura Cannizzaro Rodrigue, wrote in the emergency filing Friday night to the Supreme Court that they had sought to have Murrill’s warrant recalled in district court. She quoted a response from White to two of Murrill’s attorneys, Kyle Schonekas and Blake Arcuri.

White then added, “I object to the removal of the capias (warrant), as the accused should not get any more preferential treatment than any other criminally charged defendant,” according to the filing from Murrill’s legal team.

White also accused Murrill’s team of asking the Supreme Court “to micromanage this case differently than a regular pending matter,” according to the filing.

“Speaking of conflicts, is the State of Louisiana paying for the defense of the accused using taxpayer money??!” White added, the filing says.

While the Louisiana Supreme Court’s order staying Murrill’s indictment noted several potential flaws with the grand jury process, the order did not specifically address the warrant.
