The investigation, led by retired judge Laurie A. White, examines whether Murrill’s warnings of “serious consequences” under usurper laws amounted to intimidation. Mayor Moreno called the threats surprising and unlawful, while city leaders defended their actions—later overturned by the Supreme Court—claiming Murrill misread the law. Murrill insisted they ignored her request to await the court’s ruling, putting their offices at risk. The District Attorney labeled the invoked statute a “relic of the Reconstruction era,” and this rare grand jury-led probe adds drama to an already volatile political standoff.
