So he may not have used the Officers gun to commit the murder. Would not be the first time some one was able to sneak a weapon.
He will get the death penalty.
Not to bad. a little over 24 hours after the crime and he is caught.

“Holloway’s sidearm was still in its holster when police found him, but they also recovered .40-caliber Smith & Wesson from inside his police vehicle.”
So the officer inadvertently caused his own death. That’s so sad.

Further from the above article:
Police also recovered a .38-caliber handgun, the same caliber as the weapon that Boys had used in an assault that led to his first arrest Saturday.
Boys had been frisked when he was arrested and when he was taken to Central Lockup, Harrison said.
According to police, Boys was in the back seat of Holloway's car when he managed to slip his cuffed hands from behind his back, produce a hidden gun, shoot the NOPD officer and flee, eventually stealing a car that he later crashed.

What! No street justice? The cops let this guy make it to jail alive? That’s surprising.

Boys' arrest ended a day-long, citywide manhunt after police found a fatally injured Holloway near the corner of Elysian Fields and North Claiborne avenues Saturday morning. I used to live a few blocks from there. Relations with blacks were always contentious. I see that nothing has changed.

Well he was on a bus on a Sunday morning so there were probably a lot of witnesses.

A swarm of officers caught him near Reynes Street and St. Claude Avenue Sunday When you look at that location in Google Maps, you see the usual sign visible from above: lots of city blocks with houses very close together, except for large areas of just grass lawns.
The lawns are houses that were burned to the ground and never rebuilt.

Burned to the ground? I don’t know where you get your information but it’s not very accurate. This isn’t Detroit.

So what explains the big empty lots between close-together little houses?

Ah. Good point. Sorry I generalized in ignorance.
My apologies to you, and to New Orleans.
