Former Cop Released After Alleged Mass Shooting Plot | Raleigh News
Description
A former cop accused of plotting a mass shooting targeting Black people in New Orleans was quietly released after a Louisiana grand jury deemed evidence insufficient for state terrorism charges — despite carrying a gun and ammo, allegedly en route to the crowded Jazz & Heritage Festival. The case, involving cross-state jurisdiction and a history of self-harm, underscores the legal and logistical hurdles in prosecuting potential mass violence, even when threats are imminent. Authorities in North Carolina were unaware of his release, and his family took him to a treatment facility out of state.
