Governor Landry says bond set for I-110 shooting suspect was not high enough
Police say the 63-year-old woman fired multiple rounds after crashing, grazing a driver’s head and prompting attempted second-degree murder charges.
- On Sunday, 63-year-old Leila Ann Habib was arrested after allegedly carjacking a vehicle and firing shots at passing cars on Interstate 110 near Harding Boulevard in Baton Rouge, grazing a driver's head.
- Louisiana Deserves Better founder Marian Gbaiwon stated Habib served as a volunteer social media director before recently resigning due to internal conflicts within the organization.
- Commissioner Kina Kimble set Habib's $180,000 bond with charges including $100,000 for attempted second-degree murder, $50,000 for illegal weapon use, $25,000 for aggravated criminal damage, and $5,000 for simple criminal damage.
- Governor Jeff Landry criticized the bond as too low, comparing it to the $400,000 bond set for Attorney General Liz Murrill, writing on X that the disparity explains why Louisianans have 'lost faith in the justice system.'
- Defense attorney Franz Borghardt argued the two cases are not comparable, stating 'Baton Rouge has no say in Orleans bond,' while campaign founder Gbaiwon confirmed the recall effort will continue cooperating with investigators.
