the old version of CCrP 701 said that the prosecution had to file the bill within 60 days of arrest. it still exists but it's 120 days for LWOP/death cases. so after 60 days they would get released and of course NOBODY would be snitching at that point.

Dude growing up back in th 90s I remember it being a huge thing, they called it the '60 day murda' saying they would just go kill someone and just be out in 60 days anyway.... I remember there was one dude that supposedly had been arrested 13 times for murder and never did over 60 days... not sure how true it was, but it was a known thing.

it's certainly a powerful tool to regulate snitches

bringing a 2nd degree murder charge through grand jury in 60 days in a hell hole like orleans parish has to be tough under the best circumstances. now imagine having maybe one snitch witness and nobody else helping..that dude's balls are on the line

Just once I'd love for someone to explain to me how poverty can be assigned as a directly driving factor in the types of murders we are seeing in New Orleans.

The vast majority of these murders have no direct financial motive.

The shooter is actually down 50 cents a round and down gas money if it is a drive by.

Black people don't gun each other down in the streets of New Orleans to steal their wallets.

I've argued that the culture that thinks murder is a good way to solve many problems is much more responsible for the economic situation than vice versa.

that argument works a LOT better in place like BR where it's easy to say "let the thugs sort it out and don't waste my money" when the thugs are primarily isolated to NBR and Gardere


True. The murders are a little more spread out here. It's just strange that even so, I don't ever feel like I'm in danger here.

Because poverty correlates with lack of education, lack of opportunities, lack of support systems, etc.

All of the above is just liberal, horseshite non-sense.

Being poor does not correlate with shooting someone down in the street because they disrespected you, you fricking idiot.

You fricktard liberals have driven blacks to the gates of hell with the kindred of shite you talk and you'd happily kick them right in if it meant saving face.

The Great Society did this. 50 years of destroying people for votes and not actually wanting to help them.

That's your legacy.

People get arrested but can't get convictions or even arraigned due to lack of evidence because people never want to be "snitches."

it's relative poverty, not absolute poverty



Trying to find correlation of GINI factor and murder/crime is difficult. I have said for a long time, ti is not poverty, but relative income. It appears GINI was first written about by Carrodo GINI of Italy in 1912 or so. The mathematical formulas to arrive at said ratio are numerous and well above my pay grade. Like Global warming, there is great international interest in wealth factors, which also will bring about enormous funding by various left wing groups, searching for that egalitarian utopia, which exists only in another plane, and in the minds of dreamers. Seriously, if you have any information, please share it, as it is an interest of mine.

Dallas had 125 homicides last year and it's population is 4 times the size of Nola. The homicide rate in Nola is ridiculous.


Yet NOLA is 3rd in us in GINI effect ratio, Dallas is 4th, neck and neck.
