Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill filed an emergency request to the Louisiana State Supreme Court to cancel an arrest warrant and enforce a stay to her indictment. This comes hours after the court granted a stay of Attorney General Liz Murrill's indictment.

路易斯安那州总检察长 Liz Murrill 向州最高法院提出紧急请求，要求撤销逮捕令并阻止对其起诉的生效。此举是在法院数小时前批准暂缓起诉后不久发生的。

The Court noted that the “Attorney General makes a compelling argument concerning the disturbing defects in the grand jury proceedings and in the trial court’s handling of those proceedings.”

法院指出，“总检察长关于大陪审团程序以及审判法院处理该程序过程中存在的令人不安的缺陷”提出了令人信服的论点。”

Murrill released a statement on the Court's decision, saying “I’m grateful to the Louisiana Supreme Court for swiftly issuing a stay in this matter. The constitution and laws of Louisiana impose a wide swath of duties on the Attorney General. I will continue to carry out those duties to the best of my ability. This matter is not over. I will still need to file the necessary motions to seek a dismissal, which will be forthcoming. I want to thank the many friends and supporters who have expressed their support and encouragement. I hope this political witch hunt is not a harbinger of things to come, but I fear that it is. Neither the grand jury investigation law nor the public intimidation law was intended to be used as a political weapon by a rogue, biased, vindictive special prosecutor, judge, and grand jury. I hope the legislature in the future will ensure this cannot happen again."

Murrill 就法院的决定发表声明，表示：“我很感激路易斯安那州最高法院迅速在此事中签发暂缓令。路易斯安那州的宪法和法律赋予了总检察长广泛的责任。我将尽我所能继续履行这些职责。此事尚未结束。我仍需要提交必要的动议以寻求驳回起诉，这很快就会进行。我想感谢那些表达支持和鼓励的许多朋友和支持者。我希望这场政治猎巫不是未来的先兆，但我担心它是这样。大陪审团调查法和公众恐吓法本意并非被一个滥用职权、偏颇、怀恨在心的特别检察官、法官和大陪审团当作政治武器。我希望立法机构在未来能确保此类事件不再发生。”

Sources told WDSU that the grand jury initiated the investigation, which is considered uncommon. Several witnesses have already appeared before the grand jury, and the jury is expected to reach a decision on the matter later this week.

消息人士告诉 WDSU，这次调查是由大陪审团发起的，这并不常见。几名证人已经在大陪审团面前作证，预计陪审团将于本周晚些时候就该事项作出决定。

Murrill said she had not been notified of any investigation.

Murrill 表示她尚未收到任何调查通知。

"All I have are hearsay reports, because I haven't," Murrill said.

“我听到的都是道听途说，因为我确实没收到通知，”Murrill 说。

Sources say it is connected to letters the AG sent to New Orleans city leaders. When contacted by phone, White had no comment for WDSU.

消息人士称，这与总检察长致新奥尔良市领导人的信件有关。当被电话采访时，White 对 WDSU 没有置评。

Murrill sent letters to New Orleans officials warning that their attempt to install a competing Orleans Parish clerk of court would trigger serious consequences under Louisiana’s usurper laws, warning that the actions taken by the council and mayor could result in the possible forfeiture of their positions.

Murrill 向新奥尔良官员发出信函，警告称他们试图设立一个竞争性的奥尔良县法院书记官职位将触发路易斯安那州篡权法下的严重后果，并警告称市议会和市长的行动可能导致其职位被剥夺。

The letters were sent to New Orleans City Council members, Mayor Helena Moreno, District Attorney Jason Williams, and the Honorable Calvin Johnson.

这些信函是致新奥尔良市议会成员、市长 Helena Moreno、地区检察官 Jason Williams 以及 Calvin Johnson 法官的。

The attorney general warned that the council's resolutions to appoint Judge Calvin Johnson as interim clerk and call a special election rested "on the false narrative that Act 15 created a new, vacant office."

总检察长警告称，市议会任命卡尔文·约翰逊法官为临时书记官并召开特别选举的决议，是建立在“第15号法案创造了新的空缺席位”这一虚假叙事基础之上的。

According to Murrill, the law did not create a vacancy, but rather eliminated the criminal clerk's office position that Calvin Duncan won.

据默里尔称，该法律并未创造空缺席位，而是取消了卡尔文·邓肯赢得职位的刑事书记官职务。

"Act 15 did not create a vacancy. It abolished the former criminal clerk's office, transferred its authority, duties, records, and funds to the former civil clerk's office, and renamed that continuing office the clerk of court for Orleans Parish. Chelsey Richard Napoleon remains the lawful clerk of court for Orleans Parish," the letter said.

“第15号法案并未创造空缺席位。它废除了前刑事书记官办公室，将其职权、职责、记录和资金转移到前民事书记官办公室，并将该延续的办公室更名为奥尔良县法院书记官。谢尔西·理查德·拿破仑仍然是奥尔良县法院的合法书记官。”信函中写道。

"I specifically asked the Council to wait for the Louisiana Supreme Court to weigh in. Instead, they knowingly refused and moved forward with resolutions that attempt to displace Chelsey Richard Napoleon from her lawful office as Clerk of Court for Orleans Parish. There is no vacancy, and no public official should recognize this fictional office or Judge Calvin Johnson's purported appointment to it. Louisiana's usurper laws carry serious consequences, and my office will enforce them," said Attorney General Liz Murrill in a news release issued on Wednesday.

州检察长莉兹·默里尔在周三发布的新闻稿中表示：“我明确呼吁市议会等待路易斯安那州最高法院的裁决。相反，他们明知故犯地拒绝，并推进旨在剥夺谢尔西·理查德·拿破仑在奥尔良县法院书记官这一合法职务的决议。这里没有空缺席位，任何公职人员都不应承认这个虚构的职位或卡尔文·约翰逊法官对此职位所谓任命。路易斯安那州的篡权法有着严重后果，我的办公室将予以执行。”

Murrill called on the council to rescind or suspend its resolutions, and urged them to "take no further action recognizing the disputed office or appointment."

默里尔呼吁市议会撤销或暂停其决议，并敦促他们“不要采取进一步行动来承认这一有争议的职位或任命。”

New Orleans Mayor Helena Moreno issued a video statement, calling the letter a threat.

新奥尔良市长海伦娜·莫雷诺发布了一段视频声明，称这封信是一种威胁。

She urged Murrill to let the matter play out in court and stressed she would not be intimidated.

她敦促默里尔让事情在法庭上自行发展，并强调自己不会被恐吓。

"I will not be intimidated or threatened by the state attorney general," Moreno said. "I won't back down."

莫雷诺说：“我不会受到州检察长的恐吓或威胁。我不会退缩。”

what? The article is fine.

什么？文章没问题啊。

So let me get this straight. The attorney general is MAGA a once a new county clerk that also will be MAGA in New Orleans.

所以让我理清一下思路。这位总检察长是MAGA（让美国再次伟大）支持者，而一位新上任的县书记官也是MAGA支持者，就在新奥尔良。

In order to do this they issue an investigation, And because of the indictment the county clerk must recues herself and leave office for the sanctity of her position.

为了做到这一点，他们发起了一项调查，由于被起诉，县书记官必须回避并辞职，以保持其职位的神圣性。

So the state attorney general is forcing her out to replace her with a MAGA stooge.

所以州检察长逼她下台，以便用一个MAGA傀儡来取代她。

Murrill’s letters

默里尔的信函

The decision comes after sources told Fox 8 Tuesday evening the grand jury began investigating letters Murrill sent Mayor Helena Moreno, District Attorney Jason Williams and five city councilmembers in May.

据悉，周二晚间消息人士向Fox 8电视台透露，大陪审团已开始调查默里尔今年5月致市长海莲娜·莫雷诺、地区检察官杰森·威廉姆斯及五名市议会成员的信件，此举便源于此。

The letters came during a dispute over the state legislature’s move to eliminate the city’s criminal clerk of court position and consolidate the office with the civil clerk.

这封信件出现在州议会推动取消该市刑事法庭书记官职位，并将其与民事书记官职务合并的争议期间。

The City Council voted to appoint the interim clerk, former judge Calvin Johnson, and called for a special election — a move Moreno and Williams supported at the time.

市议会投票任命前法官卡尔文·约翰逊为临时书记官，并呼吁举行特别选举——当时莫雷诺和威廉姆斯支持这一举措。

The Louisiana Supreme Court later struck down the council’s resolutions, blocked the special election and ordered the civil clerk, Chelsey Richard Napoleon, to serve as the consolidated clerk as required by the new law.

路易斯安那州最高法院随后撤销了市议会的决议，叫停了特别选举，并责令民事书记官切尔西·理查德·拿破仑按新法律要求担任合并后的书记官。

Murrill defended the letters Wednesday but said she had no direct knowledge of any grand jury inquiry into them.

默里尔周三为这些信件辩护，但她表示对针对这些信件的大陪审团调查没有直接了解。

In those letters, Murrill warned the officials their actions could trigger “serious consequences” under Louisiana law, including possible removal from office.

在这些信中，默里尔警告官员们，他们的行为可能在路易斯安那州法律下引发“严重后果”，包括可能被罢免公职。

To be fair, this modern crop of Trumpist Republicans is doing all the "downsize da government" things the Bush cronies used to talk about but never had the balls to do.

说实话，这批现代特朗普派共和党人确实把布什时代那帮亲信们光说不练的“精简政府”那一套给搞起来了。
