Kyren Lacy's defense attorney Matthew Ory releases a full statement concerning "the facts" surrounding Lacy's Arrest for negligent homicide & the accident itself:
"As the defense attorney for Kyren Lacy, I wish to address the charges of negligent homicide and clarify the facts surrounding this tragic incident.
On the day of the accident, Mr. Lacy was driving on a road with two lanes in each direction. While he briefly passed other vehicles, he safely reentered his lane without incident.
The collision that resulted in the death of Mr. Herman was not caused by Mr. Lacy’s actions.
The accident occurred directly in front of him when a second vehicle in the oncoming lane crossed the centerline and collided with Mr. Herman’s vehicle, in which he was a passenger.
We are of information and belief that the vehicle that collided with Mr. Herman’s vehicle was issued a citation.
At no time did Mr. Lacy’s vehicle strike the rear of Mr. Herman’s vehicle, nor did any of the vehicles Mr. Lacy passed collide with his. After the collision occurred in front of Mr. Lacy, he cautiously went around the vehicles after passage was safe.
It is crucial to emphasize that Mr. Lacy did not cause or contribute to the crash.
There was no suspicion of alcohol or drug use involved. Furthermore, contrary to some media reports, Mr. Lacy never “returned” to the scene of the accident.
Mr. Lacy’s actions following the incident, including sharing graduation pictures and engaging in training, were never intended to minimize the tragedy that occurred.
He did not believe he was at fault for the accident, and as such, he continued with his daily activities.
Throughout his career, Mr. Lacy has been an exemplary community member and teammate. We ask that he not be judged prematurely, and we are confident that further investigation will show he acted within the bounds of the law. I will vigorously defend his innocence in this case."
-Matthew Ory on Saturday, Thibodaux-based defense attorney representing Kyren Lacy.
