Overview

• Louisiana State Police on Tuesday published a Critical Incident Briefing with surveillance video, witness statements and analysis asserting Lacy’s wrong-lane, high‑speed passing triggered the chain of events that killed 78-year-old Herman Hall.
• Attorney Matthew Ory has maintained that defense-released footage shows Lacy roughly 72.6 yards behind the impact and argues he could not have directly caused the collision.
• Scott Van Pelt apologized Wednesday for an “incomplete reaction” to earlier defense video that he and Ryan Clark had referenced on SportsCenter.
• Ryan Clark issued an on-air apology Thursday on First Take for declaring Lacy innocent and alleging police manipulation before reviewing all of the State Police evidence.
• Pat McAfee also walked back earlier remarks, saying added video showed Lacy driving on the wrong side of the road, and the criminal case remains unresolved because Lacy died by suicide in April before a grand jury could convene.
