@ProPublica 🙄

@ProPublica exactly why DEI was removed, it was in few rare instances stopping people this guy failing upwards, repeatedly.

@ProPublica Why the fuck isn't this malignant racist in prison? He should at least be banned from public office.
But, it's #Louisiana, where #Racism is a sport

@ProPublica @LibraryJRP
Disgusting! He should be barred from holding any public office... but 'Murica🙄

@ProPublica

If this accusation was enough to get him fired and withholding evidence is a crime, why was he not prosecuted, or at least disbarred?

"Freedom at a Cost: The Devastating Case of Corey Williams"

By Innocence Staff
06 June 2018

"...
Hugo Holland, a Caddo Parish assistant district attorney, was responsible for Williams’ conviction. Before Williams, Holland had tried dozens of death-penalty cases and put at least 10 people, most of whom were men of color, on death row. Years later, half of Holland’s death-penalty convictions were overturned, and two are awaiting appeals. In three of those cases, including Williams’, Holland was accused of withholding evidence.

Holland was fired as a Caddo Parish assistant district attorney in 2012, but he quickly found a well-paying job as a prosecutor-for-hire and as a lobbyist for Caddo Parish.

A racist Loozyanna cracker fails upwards. Story at 11.

@ProPublica god. This reminds me of “mistakes were made (but not by me)”. I do think this asshole knows what he is doing. People in law enforcement generally tho. It’s a serious problem how confident an individual can become once they have a hunch about something. Just dig in and forge ahead down a path that’s obviously wrong

@ProPublica. J.C.

@ProPublica this is how racism gets institutionalized

@ProPublica
It seems like the south is just an absolute racist sewer. This is why the death penalty is bad. We simply can't trust the justice system in this country not to falsify evidence and rule based on bias and prejudice.

@ProPublica
> Witheld evidence in at least 3 death row cases

Every such case is made to prevent the prosecution of a wealthy white perpetrator.

@ProPublica 🤢 UUUUHRG!

@ProPublica
“In at least two death penalty cases, Louisiana judges found that Holland withheld evidence. In a third, he secured the conviction of a Black 16-year-old… prosecutors later admitted that Holland and his team had failed to turn over evidence.”

Three cases of withholding evidence. Where was the accountability from Louisiana’s courts and state Bar association?
