I have some limited professional experience with Colin Sims. He’s competent and thorough and a no-nonsense dude. Not a good day to be Laurie White & Co.

That scheme was so retarded. Utterly incomprehensible.

Yea. This doesn't end well for those involved. As it shouldn't. And Sims is not gong to GAF about what anyone in Orleans Parish thinks so that's a plus.
Since New Orleans cannot seem to govern itself, it is up to the rest of the state to do it for them.

Why did it take so long for this special procecutor to be appointed? As usual nothing will happen.

Seems a stretch to even call it that.
I'm honestly not sure what it was or what they possibly thought it might be.

Appointed six weeks ago.

Orleans Parish votes elected those dumb asses.

Typical lawfare horsehit.

Don't insult the malleable bullshite term "lawfare" by including this malarkey
Posted on 9/25/26 at 3:42 pm to SlowFlowPro
Do you think charges will be brought against people associated with this malarkey?
Posted on 9/25/26 at 3:45 pm to DevilDagNS
Lawfare connotes some level of competency. This had none of that

But who did he pay to pass the bar exam for him?

Good to see continuing effort.

St. Tammany District Attorney Collin Sims issued the following statement regarding his appointment:
"The integrity of our criminal justice system depends upon the public having faith and confidence in the grand jury process. Grand juries perform a vital function, and their work must be conducted with independence, fairness, and fidelity to the law.
"The Louisiana Supreme Court has appointed me to examine the circumstances surrounding the decision to pursue the indictment of Attorney General Liz Murrill, including whether the process was proper and whether any criminal or ethical violations occurred in the pursuit of that indictment.
"The grand jury is a powerful tool in our system of justice that can investigate and, where appropriate, return an indictment. Protecting public confidence in that institution means ensuring both that its independence is respected and that legitimate concerns about the integrity of the process are examined carefully. An important part of this review is to determine, based on the facts and the law, whether the grand jury was properly used and to confirm or dispel any concerns that it may have been misused.
"I intend to follow the facts and the law wherever they lead, without prejudgment or outside influence. At the conclusion of this work, any findings or actions that may properly be made public will be addressed consistent with the law and obligations of this appointment."
Below is a review of Murrill's indictment, her civil lawsuit, and the fallout between state and New Orleans leaders.
