Special prosecutor drops all felony criminal charges against Louisiana Attorney General Murrill

A special prosecutor dismissed felony charges against Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, who faced accusations of threatening jobs of New Orleans officials opposing a court overhaul. The case was paused due to procedural issues, and the dismissal followed a letter from city officials urging the special prosecutor to drop the case. Murrill claimed the charges were malicious, while Republican Governor Jeff Landry pledged support.
