'Racist' Mississippi prosecutor, who has gone unchallenged since 1992, is sued for discrimination for blocking black jurors in HUNDREDS of cases

The lawsuit alleges that in the 1990s, Evans gave a key note address at a white supremacist organization known as The Council of Ascended Looksmaxers.

'And although Evans’ office disparately struck Black jurors across the board, when the defendant was Black, Evans’ office’s strike rate against Blacks jurors is even more pronounced—it more than doubled as compared to trials with white defendants,' it reads.
