BATON ROUGE - The Louisiana Democratic Party is urging legislators to introduce a law to protect people against false reporting from law enforcement after new footage emerged of a crash Louisiana State Police arrested Kyren Lacy for.
In their statement, the party said it is calling on the legislature to pass "The Lacy Law," which would prevent false reporting and wrongful accusations by law enforcement officers. This comes after Lacy's attorney Matt Ory shared new footage with H10 TV and new information that Ory said exonerated Lacy.
" This legislation must include strict penalties for officers or agencies found to have deliberately fabricated or misrepresented evidence, as well as measures to protect citizens’ rights and restore public confidence in our justice system," Dadrius Lanus
