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.

Phipps has maintained his innocence and involvement in the crime throughout his incarceration.

“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.”
