The Mississippi Supreme Court says a circuit court “acted outside its authority” when it ordered Fitch to investigate a death after a district attorney removed herself from the case. The attorney general’s office can take over cases when local prosecutors step away, but justices say a judge cannot order the takeover or set a timeline. Justices issued the unanimous ruling on Oct. 19, 2021. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis, File)
