Episode Details

In this episode Kiran Chawla is joined by Attorney Franz Borghardt and UWK Reporter  Melissa Moore as they break down the indictment of Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, including the grand jury charges, the arrest warrant, and the Louisiana Supreme Court’s decision to put the case on hold.  They also review the earlier dispute over letters the AG sent about changes to the Orleans Parish criminal court clerk position, which led to allegations of malfeasance and public intimidation, as well as the concern that the case could affect future prosecutions and grand jury secrecy.
