State ex rel. Kelly v. State , 2014 La. LEXIS 1692 ( 2014 )

  • HUGHES, J.

    As the writ report acknowledges, the state’s “key witness” committed perjury on the stand, and the state dismissed a rule to revoke his probation, while the witness testified the state made him no promises. The defendant was convicted of murder primarily on the testimony of this one witness with no physical evidence. I would grant the writ to order an evidentiary hearing.
