In a new development surrounding the tragic incident involving former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacy, attorney Matt Ory has presented evidence suggesting that Lacy’s vehicle was not involved directly in the fatal collision on December 17, 2024, in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. This case has garnered significant attention due to the involvement of a notable athlete and the circumstances surrounding Lacy’s subsequent death.
Surveillance footage from the accident site provides a fresh perspective on the events that transpired. According to Ory, the video shows that Lacy’s car was not visible at the moment of the impact, being 92.3 yards behind the other vehicles. The footage challenges earlier claims by police that Lacy’s actions directly led to the collision that resulted in the death of Herman Hall, 78.
The accident, as originally reported by authorities, occurred when Lacy allegedly crossed the center line to overtake several cars. This maneuver purportedly caused a chain reaction: a pickup truck swerved to avoid Lacy’s vehicle, leading another car to cross into oncoming traffic, colliding head-on with Hall’s vehicle. Ory’s evidence suggests that Lacy was not as close to the action as initially claimed.
Amid facing charges of negligent homicide, felony hit-and-run, and reckless vehicle operation, Lacy was scheduled to appear before a grand jury. However, on the night of April 12, prior to his court appearance, he led authorities on a high-speed pursuit in Spring, Texas. Tragically, the chase ended with Lacy’s death from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.
