Justice Denied: The Wrongful Imprisonment of Army Veteran and Ph.D. Student Ladavious McNair
Ladavious was arrested in early October and charged with Aggravated Assault & Battery for a crime allegedly committed in 2023. These charges, however, are based on an egregious error. At the time of the crime, Ladavious was in class—attending lectures as part of his doctoral studies. His professor has even provided documented evidence proving that Ladavious was in class during the alleged incident. Despite this, the Fulton County District Attorney’s office has refused to release him or even acknowledge the attempts made by his legal counsel to clear up this tragic mistake.
