Crump, along with a lawyer Ronald haley jr., Approved the following statement on C-Murder’s case:

“Nobody in the state of Louisiana is doomed to contract COVID-19 or die from it. There are far too many people who are inappropriately at risk from existing illnesses and old age and who will suffer or die from the spread of COVID-19 and the Delta variant. There is no form of justice that should permit such a level of neglect for the health and safety of detainees.

“Mr. Miller pledges his innocence and we are working diligently with his legal defense team to rescue him, but in the meantime we are monitoring conditions at Elayn Hunt and are considering legal action. We stand by Mr. Miller and everyone in detention who fear losing their lives to the pandemic and the inhumanity of the prison system. We demand that the Department of Corrections act immediately. “

“Since the COVID-19 outbreak, they have continued to place inmates who tested positive for the virus in the dormitories with inmates who were COVID-19 negative,” C-Murder said said in a press release. “Not only did this spread the virus, it also caused unusually long quarantine times. The COVID-19 positive inmates are initially put into a two-week quarantine period, but the prison adds new positive inmates to the dormitory every day, which then extends the quarantine period by two weeks each day as they add a new case.
