Police Defend Kyren Lacy Crash Findings After New Attorney Evidence

Kyren Lacy’s attorney, Matthew Ory, provided video and telematics data claiming the late LSU receiver was well behind a December crash that killed 78‑year‑old Herman Hall; Louisiana State Police responded with a formal statement saying their reconstruction — presented to the 17th Judicial District Court, which approved an arrest warrant — shows Lacy’s reckless driving contributed to the fatal chain of events. The dispute centers on distances and timing in the moments before impact and includes officer bodycam material and speed/tailgating data for a second vehicle.
