They are doing it again, folks. The radical left has completely weaponized the justice system, and this time, they are coming after one of the strongest conservative fighters in the country.
A grand jury in Orleans Parish, deep in Democrat-controlled New Orleans, handed down a 16-count felony indictment against Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill on Thursday, minutes after the charges were returned. An arrest warrant was issued with bond set at a staggering $400,000, NOLA reported.
Murrill, a Republican, now faces eight counts of malfeasance in office and eight counts of public intimidation and retaliation. The charges stem from May 13 letters she sent to New Orleans Mayor Helena Moreno (D), District Attorney Jason Williams (D), and five City Council members.
In those letters, Murrill warned the officials that their attempts to circumvent a new state law merging the city’s separate civil and criminal court clerks’ offices could trigger serious consequences under Louisiana’s “usurper laws,” including potential removal from office by Governor Jeff Landry. She also made clear that any interim clerk installed in defiance of state law risked imprisonment.
The Louisiana Legislature, working with Governor Jeff Landry, passed a law to consolidate the long-fragmented Orleans Parish court clerk system. The goal was to fix chronic problems in one of the most dysfunctional and crime-plagued court systems in America. Under the new law, Civil Clerk Chelsea Richard Napoleon assumed duties over the combined office.
Newly elected Criminal Court Clerk Calvin Duncan was blocked from taking office. In response, the Democrat-led New Orleans City Council passed resolutions to install their own interim clerk (retired Judge Calvin Johnson) and call a special election — directly challenging state authority.
AG Murrill did what any responsible Attorney General should do: she sent formal legal warnings citing the usurper statutes and demanding compliance with state law.
