    A grand jury indicts Louisiana’s attorney general in a fight over changes to the local courts

    A grand jury indicted Louisiana’s attorney general for allegedly threatening local officials who opposed a law changing the local court system. The law eliminated the Orleans Parish criminal court clerk position after Calvin Duncan, a wrongfully convicted man later exonerated, was elected to the role. Governor Jeff Landry and the Republican Attorneys General Association defended the attorney general, while local officials argued the law undermined voter will in a predominantly Black community.
