Request for review following release of video showing former LSU athlete's car accident.
New video evidence has recently surfaced in the legal case involving former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacey, who had been accused of being involved in a fatal car accident in December 2024. Lacey's lawyer, Matthew Ory, shared this footage, claiming that it demonstrates Lacey's innocence in the crash that led to the tragic death of 78-year-old Herman Hall. Despite turning himself in and being released on a $151,000 bond, Lacey tragically passed away from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Houston in April. Coach Brian Kelly expressed support for Lacey during a press conference, emphasizing his positive impact as a player. The Louisiana State Police had issued an arrest warrant for Lacey on charges of negligent homicide, felony hit-and-run, and reckless driving following the December 2024 incident. Attorney General Liz Murrill stated her intention to have all witness statements and evidence in the case independently reviewed. Lacey's attorney continues to assert his client's innocence in the crash, with the recently revealed video forming part of the ongoing investigation. Calls for independent criminal and federal probes have been made by various groups including the Louisiana Democratic Party and Purposed for the People.
