There's not 2 lanes in each direction where the wreck occurred. It's 1 lane each direction and no passing zone

The 2 lanes in each direction is miles away

Yes.
Attorney is hired to handle this case no matter the guilt or innocence. This is his/her job.

Ahh yes cops get it right every time so why even bother hiring attorneys?
That said, this is classic attorney speak. I hope he had no part in the crash. You don’t have to collide with someone to cause them to crash.

If you weren't there during the time of the incident STFU.

Police pick witnesses to their liking and not always the correct one. I can testify to that personally

why would anyone swerve into oncoming traffic? idk what happened, if Lacy is guilty or not, but this part is just stupid.

What good comes from releasing this statement? Why not keep your mouth shut and play it out in court of law?
All it says is that his client caused a fatal accident, then told his lawyer someone caused it, and then he said he turned around and drove through car parts and dead body before fleeing scene.

My confusion on this, and to no ones defense at all, is if Lacy was passing and heading towards another car and the car swerved into the other lane, wouldn't they just collide with Lacy when he was merging back into the correct lane?
I'd find it weird if someone illegally passing in the wrong lane just stayed in that lane hoping the other person would get out of their way.
But hopefully they'll get to the truth.

If you saw a dodge charger hauling arse straight at you about to hit you head on, you probably just react and aren't thinking clearly.
Posted on 2/3/25 at 2:58 pm to jralspanky
correct. and no shoulders whatsoever. Its either collide head-on or bail off into a deep ditch.

This is not correct. It's the entire reason some states now have good Samaritan laws. People stopped to help and got sued by the injured parties.

Yep we just blindly believe cops because they would never botch an investigation.

because he was still behind the driver who was killed, but was in the process of trying to go around the victim, with oncoming traffic too close to complete the pass. Therefore, the oncoming traffic scrambled going right and left, and one hit the victims automobile.
Makes no sense.
Follow along. If people were scrambling to avoid the accident as you say, how can one of those vehicles also strike the victim's car?
The reports from State Police say the drivers were swerving to avoid the Charger. Those drivers say the Charger caused them to swerve.
If it wasn't the Charger causing the swerving vehicles in the other lane, then why were they swerving?
Also, if he's trying to complete a pass and traffic was too close for him to do so, then he was driving recklessly. If it is determined that his reckless driving resulted in a death, then he's guilty of vehicular manslaughter or whatever Louisiana calls it.
I also wonder how it was determined to be Lacy's car? Did someone get a partial plate or does he have a vanity plate that made it easy to remember?
There's just no way a bunch of LA folks decided one morning to pin a vehicular death on an LSU football player, and specifically Kyren Lacy. There has to be more we don't know yet.

I know the area pretty good. There's no shoulders and deep ditches on either side of the road there. Lots of culverts and telephone poles as well. No where to bail off to.
Lacy passed Herman in a no passing zone with a blind corner up ahead. A truck was about to nail him head-on and swerved right to avoid him - an did so successfully. The car behind that truck had nowhere else to go but left, presumably trying to "thread the needle" between Lacy and Herman as Lacy passed Herman. That car ended up hitting Herman head-on while Lacy drove off unscathed.

On the day of the accident, Mr. Lacy was driving on a road with two lanes in each direction. While he briefly passed other vehicles, he safely reentered his lane without incident.
Guy said this right at the top to confuse people from the start. The road is two lane, one in each direction.
Two in each direction is a four lane road. Confuse the readers and craft the story how you want to.

This is what’s gonna happen in my opinion.
Lacy attorney will get him off with a lesser charge and avoid actual jail time. Attorney will explain to the deceased man’s family that if Lacy goes to jail he won’t get drafted therefore not able to give the deceased man’s family any money if Lacy in jail.
I’d assume the deceased man’s family is poor due to them being in a Kia (I may be totally wrong here). At the end of the day it’s all about $$$ now. How much can the deceased man’s family get? If Lacy in jail they get 0, if Lacy doesn’t go to jail and he gets drafted Lacy will then have money to pay that family.
I’m probably totally wrong here but everyone else throwing out there opinions so here’s my dumb take.

It is possible the Charger was so far over the line, the Cadenza driver had no choice. The Charger may have already been too far to the driver's right.

If all that is true then I hope he is able to get drafted and enjoy a successful career. I would hate for this to ruin another draft for a solid LSU player like it die when La'el Collins got looped into a weird situation with an ex female companion.
