I want to be clear: I did not write anything about anyone's race. You block quoting dnm3305's comment in replying to my post makes it appear as if I did. I know that it wasn't intentional, but I'd appreciate it if you could edit your post to fix that


You're right, I was responding to two different posts and didn't consider how it would look in quotes. Edited

quote:

Probably not because that does not meet the definition of criminal negligence, which again is: such disregard of the interest of others that the offender's conduct amounts to a gross deviation below the standard of care expected to be maintained by a reasonably careful man under like circumstances.

The child you describe is not acting with disregard for the interests of others. A grown man speeding into oncoming traffic probably is.


Obviously I don't believe that a kid would be charged either. But it could easily be argued that running across a busy highway without looking and causing an accident is a "gross deviation below the standard of care expected to be maintained by a reasonably careful man." Otherwise you could run into traffic whenever you wanted.

ETA not only that, but if someone is arguing that negligent homicide is the appropriate charge for KL, then it'd be appropriate to charge the Funyuns lady with it too. Driving distracted, following too closely, speeding, failure to maintain a lane, all contributed to the innocent man's death.

Again, sorry about the unintentional appearance of that quote and I appreciate your good faith argument

I gotta give it to his attorney though, he stirred up a lot of shite this past weekend with carefully constructed wording.


This. Got ol’ Ryan Clark all fired up. If I can hear from Ryan Clark on this topic once more, I’ll then know how I should feel about all of it.

Even Lacy accepted his role in the accident. I have never called an attorney within 10 minutes of an accident as my first call. My first call would be to 911, and it wouldn't be 10 minutes after witnessing a head on collision. It would be instantly.


Did we ever find out which lawyer he called?

Lacy certainly shares some blame in this accident. Notice Ory never used these videos in his spot on HTV?


Nah. The driver behind the gold truck was driving distracted and following too closely. Had she kept a safe distance, she wouldn't have swerved into a lane with oncoming traffic to avoid rear ending the vehicle in front of her.

Anybody who watches that video and reads the report can see that Lacy caused the chain of events leading to the crash


I have a hand full of beans that will lead you to a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow if you just plant them. Wanna buy them?

It’s hilarious watching all these bootlickers simp for these prick state troopers who were so obviously directing the driver of the gold truck to alter his statements and include certain variables he never mentioned—Nevermind the fact they lied in their own report claiming she swerved to avoid him when that is clearly not the case.

The main thing I want answered is why did the state trooper go to the driver of the gold truck to get a statement and proceed to tell the driver what needed to be in the statement.


This right here would completely obliterate any credibility that the investigating State Police potentially held in this situation. It would literally be a means for dismissal.

After watching all the videos and reading all the witness statements, it's pretty clear that probable cause existed for an arrest warrant for Lacy.

Two things can be true at once. The woman in the white car was following too closely and not paying attention while also making an idiotic decision to swerve into traffic rather than going into the ditch to her right, but females always make stupid decisions when put under pressure so that’s nothing new.

The other truth and the overwhelming truth:

If Lacy weren’t on the road being an a-hole and endangering others at that particular time, two people would still be alive to this day.

Lacy caused it. The white car reacted, and her reaction then caused a collision, but if there was never anything to react to then she doesn’t go into that lane in the first place, and the video in this link attests to exactly. I can’t believe people can even entertain it to be anything but this.

Wut? The lady following to close and and not paying attention would still be on that road. She caused it, her fault, case closed!

Are those "gross deviations" though? I think she could be liable civilly, but criminal negligence is somewhere between mere negligence and intent. And it has to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt rather than by a preponderance of the evidence. These are all things that reasonable people can disagree about.

Oh, and what was she swerving to miss? A vehicle that put his brakes on right in front of her.

Why? Why did the truck have his brakes on? What caused the truck to put his god damn brakes on? Hmmmmmmmm, I wonder what that could have been.

Almost as hilarious as watching the jock sniffers try to justify that their boy who was passing multiple cars at 80mph in a no-passing lane was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

He was driving recklessly and speeding and passing illegally, and his actions caused teh truck to stop which then resulted in the wreck.


Let's say that this theory holds true.

How does this absolve the driver of the vehicle behind the gold truck from maintaining a proper distance from him?

How does this absolve the driver of the vehicle behind the gold truck from veering into an opposing lane (oncoming traffic)?

How does this square with the lockbox evidence that shows her braking exactly 0.5 seconds before veering into the opposing lane (with oncoming traffic) in an effort to avoid rear ending the gold truck?

Its possible Lacy played a part in the accident and at a minimum would get a wreckless operation. Its also a fact that Lacy then fired a gun in an argument with family that led to a police chase 4 months later right before the suicide.

Why are we acting like the accident is what caused his suicide and not the event that happened hours/ days before the suicide that included a police chase and firearm discharge?

Lacy could have caused the chain of events but should not be charged with the murder just as much as the accident could have caused a chain of events but may not be the main cause of his suicide.

Is anyone arguing that ONLY Lacy is responsible for this crash? I have been gone from teh thread for a while, but I don't recall anyone making that claim.

Stopped right here.

It’s not a fricking theory. He LITERALLY was passing vehicles in a no passing lane prompting the truck IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC to brake. Point of impact was 72 yards away from him.
