For anyone thinking Lacy might play in the NFL one day.
No one thought he would once the news about him came out. NFL teams are not investing in that.

Him fricking up and causing a major wreck (while sober) is enough to make someone in his position panic and bounce out. I presume he thought he could leave without being detected.
I hear you, but the police report sure does read like the wreck happened followed by Lacy turning his vehicle around and driving around the scene.

A buddy I went to high school with fell asleep at the wheel driving home from work one night, went into another lane and hit a guy head on and killed the man. Got 20 years in jail. Been in there about 10 years now.
20 years for an actual accident? There's got to be more to this story

That guy, if completely sober, had horrific lawyers. That's insane.
His dad said he spent all of his saving on attorneys. He did say they were terrible.
His dad is a nurse and my buddy actually got sent to the hospital where he was working. He obviously went to see him and his friend came and took a blood sample to test for alcohol and/or drugs. He works up there so he obviously knew the guy that took the sample.
In court the prosecutors said he had something in his system (don't know if it was alcohol or drugs) but his dad said they never proved it or showed the results from the blood test. They just kept saying in court he was on something like it was a fact. Part of the defense was that they knew for sure they took a blood test but never got the results.
It's not like I can say for certain, but the guy worked a night shift and had a 45 minute drive home on an old highway, it's not hard to imagine a guy just falling asleep. I never knew him to be a drug user.

Actually, the main difference is that dude actually hit and killed the other driver while Lacy did not.

He fled the scene, dude.
I said I wasn't defending him. I'm pointing out mitigating factors, though.
You do not have to agree with the analysis, but please accept the analysis for what it is.
My hip shot as we sit here on 1/13/2025 - he will be given the opportunity to plea, no jail time (or perhaps a token sentence of up to 90 days), community service/probation and victim restitution for the rest.
I'm not advocating for or against this, just calling balls and strikes.

I tend to agree. This isn't a case where it is a talent like Randy Moss, or more recently, our own Ja'Marr Chase or Malik Nabers. So, NFL "indignation" has a situational "dose response" depending on both the perceived deficient conduct and the perceived talent upside.
I mean, if it had been Tom Brady leading the kneelers, for example, he would played all the games Tom Brady actually played.

In today's NFL, I don't know if he gets drafted even if he was that talented. Well, someone might take a risk with a late round or sign him as a free agent. Some team would roll the dice, but no one is spending a lot on him.
Players like that don't tend to do well with jersey sales or in general not very marketable.

Of all the talk on this topic I keep seeing one argument/defense that is completely ridiculous. He didn’t cause the wreck because he didn’t actually make contact with the other vehicle, which is beyond ignorant, that wreck would never have happened the way it did without the 3rd vehicle operating recklessly. I keep reading that he might not have know he caused the wreck, unless every incident report is false, he absolutely saw the wreck happen and had to pass by the vehicles involved. And the worst part is that the man that was killed died at the hospital…so who knows had KL stopped or even called 911, that man may still be alive. And that is why a lot of people including myself think he is a complete POS

Lacy is dead to me. Might as well have went to bama.

DUI.-- aggravating factor.
There's no mention that Lacy had any intoxicants in his system when he allegedly caused an accident, but leaving the scene is its own aggravant.

World was a different place then. Vince didn’t leave the scene and there was no internet. Plus I don’t recall Neal ever suiting up for the Rams. Singing in a band is much different than playing for multi billion dollar corporation.

This is how it is with Asian women drivers. They’re completely awful oblivious drivers. They themselves don’t get into the wreck but they leave carnage in their wake.

Hopefully a forensic reconstruction guy chimes in with a video because your statement is foreign to me. Maybe I’ve been reading incorrectly what actually happened and where each car was.

That makes it vehicular homicide, which is a massive difference.

I know, but that still seems excessive for falling asleep and accidentally killing someone. People get less than twenty years for actually meaning to kill someone.

Could have been drug or alcohol related, but we’ll never know because of screwed up law enforcement didn’t go after him right away. Plenty of time to get sober several days after the incident

Could it be, Lacy (Veh 1) traveling south is passing several cars in the wrong lane of travel.
Prior to Veh 1 completing the pass of all cars, Veh 2 traveling north sees Lacy in his lane of travel and rather than stay in their lane, takes evasive action and exits the roadway to the right,
Veh 3 traveling north following Veh 2 notices the sudden departure of Veh 2 to the right shoulder and immediately faces Lacy in their lane of travel. Sudden shock and immediate reaction was to turn into the southbound lane of travel and into the path of Veh 4
Veh 4 traveling south in the southbound lane strikes Veh 3.
The crash takes place in front of Veh 1 before he ever completes the pass of ALL the vehicles. Veh 1 then drives around the crash site and speeds away southbound.
The “but for’ rule - But for Vehicle 1 driving reckless by speeding and passing in a no passing zone, there is a higher than not probability that the actions of vehicle 2 and Veh 3 never occur and Veh 4 is not involved.
