I also know that KL's mom got pregnant young (high school) and she got 2 college degrees raising a young son.

This isn't a thug family.

There are many judgmental people here and all over social media.

Including yourself ma’am you’ve shite all over people since you started monopolizing this thread. You’re even going off-topic and hitting unrelated parties with strays.

unflattering views of Kyren Lacy are based in racism


Why I think race is part of this?

Why was the black NFL hopeful charged/arrested and the white person named in the civil suit left alone.

People get harassed/profiled for driving while black or driving with blacks all the time. It happened to me 20 years ago. Not much has changed since then. My opinions are based upon my life experiences.

(For the record I am Caucasian and BRPD stopped me after I swerved to avoid something on I-110 when I was bringing a client from the airport to his hotel.)

Edited to add that BRPD questioned me as to why my passenger was a black dude and if I was OK. They even called a second unit and questioned him.

Certainly seems like Ory is confident.

I didn’t dig into the charges too much when it first happened, has there ever been any proof made public that Kyren is guilty? Based off how most people have been talking about it, you’d think they posted a video showing him cause the wreck.

That is in no way unusual. Civil suits generally involve everyone (more importantly their insurers) that could possibly contribute to a settlement. Settlement is always the goal in those types of suits. People will pay just to be done with it, or again more accurately, their insurers will put up money to avoid defense costs even if they don’t admit any liability whatsoever.

It means nothing in the context of the conversation you’re having.

going off-topic


Someone mentioned CTE and my posts related to that topic and I have answered questions relating to the person I don't want to come out and name.

Thanks for your concern.

This was one of KL attorney's points. Why was he the only one arrested/charged? Was this other person another driver?

I know Hill's wife was driving one car. Who were the others?

Almost certainly another driver. KL’s attorney knows the answer, unless he just chooses not to. If the civil suit was filed, the information is readily available to anyone with a clerk of court login.

Lacy was driving the vehicle that allegedly caused the entire ordeal, plus fled the scene. That’s why he was charged. Any civil suit probably involves the driver of the vehicle that hit the guy who died.

It’s plaintiff’s lawyer 101. Louisiana is a comparative fault state. Anyone who could be even 1% at fault is getting named because their insurance may be willing to pay to not deal with it.

But KL's attorney said KL was behind the Hill car and the other car swerved into them hitting head on.

He then said KL drove past them and continued down the road and even stated that how many accidents have we all driven by?

KL's attorney said he was pissed how all of this was handled.

This is completely opposite of the LSP’s investigation and the initial accident report.

Here's an interview with Lacy's attorney. It's very interesting.


Not sure what he would stand to gain by going out and saying all of this now, and he seems pretty damn confident.

Gonna be a damn shame if we find out down the road that he wouldn’t have even been charged.

He’s confident because he no longer has to defend his client in the court of law.

Everyone or every car should have dash cams.

It’s really not. This is what was reported from LSP initially:
quote:

As Lacy was illegally passing the other vehicles, the driver of a northbound pickup truck abruptly braked and swerved to the right to avoid a head-on collision with the approaching Dodge. Traveling behind the pickup was a 2017 Kia Cadenza whose driver swerved left to avoid the on coming Dodge Charger. As the Kia Cadenza took evasive action to avoid impact with the Dodge, it crossed the centerline and collided head-on with a southbound 2017 Kia Sorento. Following the crash, Lacy drove around the crash scene and fled south on LA Hwy 20 without stopping to render aid, call emergency services, or report his involvement in the crash.

A lot of people speculated that Lacy must have been in front of the crash because the Cadenza reportedly swerved to avoid him, but the language about him then driving around the crash and leaving the scene always sounded like the wreck happened in front of Lacy.

Right. As in the car he was trying to pass hit the car that was avoiding him.

At no point would Lacy have been behind the person that was hit. That doesn’t make any sense

I'm sorry for his family and there's no reason to throw salt into the wound but Kyren doesn't sound like he was a good person. I'm sorry but killing someone then driving away without alerting first responders is shitty by itself, now he's shooting warning shots at family members and getting involved in high speed chases? Sorry but if he wasn't good at football we'd call him a thug and say good riddance. I'm sorry for his family but doesn't sound like society lost a model citizen.


Sounds young and entitled and emotional but he could have grown up and maybe had a life. It makes me think about what I was like when I was young and stupid. Not saying we were all out causing accidents that get people killed but most of us are lucky to grow up and get through those emotional impulsive years without doing something so severe that we irreparably damage our life or someone else’s. We get to learn from our mistakes and get better and none of that happened here. Worst case scenario all around.

if you listen to the interview with the lawyer posted in this thread, it sounds like he will continue to try and clear his name. obviously won’t be in court so I’m not sure exactly.

Back when I was like 13 or 14, I threw a water balloon out of the passenger seat of a car towards a lady’s vehicle next to us.

When my dad found out he kicked my arse and explained what would have happened to me if that lady swerved off the road and got hurt or even died. Not once in my dumbass kid brain did that ever cross my mind before I threw it.

Granted, I was a lot younger than Kyren but that whole ordeal made me think back to that water balloon and how awful I would have felt had that lady been hurt. And how awful it would have been if I had to pay for that with years of my life.
