re: LSP release Lacy info in reference to Lacy attorney misinformation

OK. This is dumb, but I'll bite.

If gold truck was going the speed limit, and she was speeding (faster than the speed limit) and also right on his bumper, why didn't she hit him? Either before the accident or especially when he laid on his brakes?

---

Yeah you are right, you are dumb.

The gold truck was going under the speed limit.

I didn't say she was right on his bumper. She was traveling at a faster speed than the gold truck.

You can find actual time needed to over take by using a simple calculator. Here you can use this one that is free for consumers to see quick she would run into the back of him. LINK


I have given her the benefit of the doubt saying she was 5 car lengths behind ( a car length is generally 15')

Her traveling at 49MPH and the gold truck traveling at 29MPH she would over take him in 2.56 sec or 158 feet.

You can break the law and not cause an accidentZ

Lacy illegally passed 4 cars and didn’t hit anyone. The car that he was basing his timing off (the gold truck in the oncoming lane) also didn’t hit anyone.

The Woman behind the gold truck was also breaking the law following too closely. She then broke the law again crossing the center line and hitting a car head on.

She wasn’t avoiding Lacy, she was avoiding rear ending the truck in front of her. That’s her fault.

To pass the buck to Lacy, she would have had to been reasonably likely to hit HIM head on.

OK so if he didn't have to lock up then why did a vehicle behind him need to lock up or swerve into oncoming traffic unless she was traveling at too fast a speed and/or not paying attention?

---

Is anyone even arguing that the funyon lady was paying attention or not speeding?

The argument is that the truck was going only 29 MPH, which was a calculation the defense attorney made. It’s much more likely he was traveling at or around the speed limit before braking, not 11 MPH below it.

So, you can theorize that it was maybe close enough for someone to panic, but I've been in similar situations with someone driving recklessly, coming at me, and that amount of space is not enough for me to just plow into someone to try to avoid it. It's just not strong evidence

---

If Lacy was driving 70mph it would take appx 2 seconds to cover 70 yards. It’s becomes under 2 seconds considering the truck was moving towards Lacy. That’s not a lot of time to react. I can definitely understand why the gold truck swerved.

I hate how The Advocate inserted this in their story:

"Ten minutes after the crash, Lacy stopped at a business 11 miles away and called a personal injury and defense attorney in the Baton Rouge area, State Police said. "

They are sure making a lot of assumptions about why Lacy was calling.

1) He may have been calling to tell the Attorney about a completely unrelated matter. He may have been confirming a meeting about a NIL deal with the Attorney.

2) He may have had a NIL deal with the Attorney already and was telling him that he witnessed an accident and it could be good business for the Attorney.

She didnt lock up either according to Ory. She swerved slightly left to avoid the truck in front of her who swerved right and applied his brakes. (imagine driving around a mail truck partially blocking the right side of your lane) Presumably figuring she could clear the truck and get by the southbound traffic in time. She was wrong. Had she been psychic and known in a spilt second that gold truck would have the skill to quickly veer into the carwash parking lot after initially veering, she could have stood on the brakes and maybe....maybe... avoided rear ending him.

But as a resident of the area, I can tell you that the speed limit drops from 50 to 40 right there at the tire place, and there are many folks stopping and turning off into business and streets on that stretch, so the traffic all slows and comes together in file from each direction (its a bottleneck)-similar to the southbound group of vehicles Lacy passed - so its common to have these vehicles following each other at about a car length or two through that short 40MPH stretch.

here is what he drove past and manoeuvred around 8 seconds after a very serious car crash.

Then immediately phoned a defense attorney

not everyone.

I think his death is more complex than that. Kyren has had impulse control and mental health challenges his entire life. He clearly got into some altercation with his sister in Houston and was fleeing police after discharging a weapon.

This was all on top of this looming charge in Louisiana.

I think its unfair to claim he would still be alive today if it weren't for the LSP. In fact, I think its irresponsible.
