In the letter, he pointed to the suspicious origin of the case and irregularities with the grand jury’s proceedings as necessitating federal review. Read the letter here. Congressman Higgins’ letter was delivered on July 3, 2026, shortly after a Louisiana Supreme Court decision to issue a stay and halt the indictment. The decision cited “disturbing defects in the grand jury proceedings and in the trial court’s handling of those proceedings.” | 1 | 2026-07-23T07:31:02Z | 2026-07-23T07:32:26Z |
