Show Notes
In this segment of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards launches a sharp critique against Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch's office for what he calls a "witch hunt" prosecution of two former Capitol Police officers, Frederickson and Reinholt, over the fatal shooting of Jalen Lewis. Edwards highlights that the AG's own expert witness reviewed the evidence and concluded the use of force was justified and not excessive, pointing to photos of Lewis with guns and drugs at the scene. He expresses shock at the charges, framing it as unnecessary "conservative-on-conservative violence." Edwards also blasts WLBT reporter CJ Lemasters for an article that refuses to acknowledge the officers' innocence, insisting they "didn't do it." The rant underscores Edwards' support for the Capitol Police's role in maintaining order.
