How do you figure that he was wrongfully arrested? Bc his attorney says so?? The prosecution says otherwise.


He’s saying that someone else was involved that wasn’t arrested.

Exactly.

if the truck came to a complete stop that means the car behind it could have. if it showered down and swerved right it means the car behind it had time to slow down and swerve right.


No. The truck reflexively bailed right and there was never a report that the truck came to a stop.

quote:

if the collision happened in front of Lacy, that’s means he was far enough away to slow down and avoid colliding into the vehicles. Which would mean he was pretty far away when the car swerved and killed the guy.


It didnt. his lawyer is smart. "in front of him" means he witnessed it, not that he was behind the incident. He was passing the victim and cleared the guy, as was widely reported.

quote:

If the collision happened behind him, that means he passed the victim, got back I to the correct plant and passed the oncoming car who THEN swerved left and killed the guy.


Yes, making him liable for causing the crash... which is the whole reason the area is a no passing zone.

No telling what his mental state was at this point, but I doubt it was the same as just prior to the incident giving rise the his charges.

I know what he is saying. He's saying exactly what he was supposed to be saying as a defense attorney. He was creating a defense of reasonable doubt. KL could have probably gotten off. I'm saying that multiple other people are/were saying differently. Again, they didn't arrest him bc they were looking for a football player driving a Charger to at fault and criminally charge.

I appreciate everyone's input. Has there been a diagram published of the vehicles involved in the crash?

While I feel for anyone with mental issues it really just seems and sounds like through his selfish and dangerous actions on and off the field, he was just a flat out piece of shite.

No matter what you are told, you seem intent on making this out to be someone else's fault. Or maybe you just like arguing.

Everything you say is plausible. You may be 100% right. But unless you've seen video, you have to go with the official report that was put together from physical evidence and witness statements. If you can't see how the official explanation is plausible (and probably correct), especially if all the stars aligned properly, and things are moving at 55mph in close proximity, and the timing of things was just right, then I don't know what to tell you.

I'm sorry but we don't assign fault in accidents where someone was clearly doing something illegal, to someone who's doing everything right, except their reaction time wasn't quick enough in your opinion.

And for the record, I hope you're right. I hope Lacy's name is cleared. I just have my doubts that it'll happen.

that’s what you’re supposed to do. But if the truck isn’t stopped and is still moving, why isn’t going right and behind the truck an option for the lady who hit the oncoming car.

again, if she swerved behind him? why is she swerving at all.

Not trying to be a dick, but how do you know the particulars of the accident?

She also crossed the middle line. That’s illegal.

So it has to be reasonable for her to do in an emergency situation.

it really needs to come down to, if she hadn’t swerved into the right lane Lacy would have hit her in the left lane, and even looking at the physical evidence I dont think that’s the case.

You don't have to hit a vehicle to cause a vehicular accident that cause death.


You dint, but if a different vehicle crosses the centerline into oncoming traffic they have to pin it on you.

Lacy’s attorney says the accident happened in front of him. Meaning he was far enough away to stop and not collide with them. So this wasn’t a split second decision.

And again, “I was trying to avoid a car in my lane so i swerved into oncoming traffic” isn’t a great defense.


Bruh, this is my last attempt. It was reported by LSP and Lafourche SO that KL swerved into oncoming lane in which the truck (vehicle #1) had to suddenly swerve right and Kia (vehicle #2) behind that vehicle to make a defensive maneuver to avoid vehicle #1 with no where to go and reacted by going left to avoid them but instead caused a collision with the Kia (vehicle #3) that had the fatality.

KL swerved in front which caused a chain reaction and allowed to witness everything in front and avoid the collision which he ended up driving around after it happens.

He blocked the path by pulling head on into the oncoming lane which caused accident that resulted in death. Can't make it anymore simpler than that

Depending on which articles you read in the days following the accident, it was clearly described in a few of them.

She almost certainly never saw Lacy until the truck swerved right revealing Lacy swerving back into the northbound lsne. She swerved toward the center line to fit between the truck and Lacy/the victim and hit the victim. She had nowhere else to go and this all happened in a half a second.

Look, this isn’t a race thing so let that shite go. Lacy is a god here. He did something tons of young drivers do, so murder definitely isn’t in his heart. He fricked up, but there’s no question that he caused this accident.

Pretty eye-opening interview. Makes you feel for all involved, especially Lacy.
lawyer defends client - shocking.

Got to take everything he says with a grain of salt.
