NEW ORLEANS, LA – June 22, 2021 — Louisiana Board of Pardons and Committee on Parole officially granted McKinley “Mac” Phipps Jr. parole. His specific date of release remains unknown, however, he is one long step closer to freedom.

“Today marks the end of a long fight for justice,” says McKinley’s wife, Angelique Phipps. “Today we are looking towards a brighter future for our family. We are grateful to all of those who have never wavered in their support of Mac’s innocence.” 

McKinley “Mac” Phipps Jr. appeared before the Louisiana Board of Pardons and Committee on Parole on June 22, 2021. The three members of the Board unanimously voted in favor of Phipps receiving immediate parole. A Full video of the parole hearing is available below.
