Governor @LouisianaGov this man, Ronald Greene died in an interaction with Louisiana State Police. This has been brought to your attention.
The public needs to see what took place last year. A federal lawsuit spells out details of the alleged encounter between Ronald Greene
and a handful of Louisiana state troopers in the Monroe area. The lawsuit states Greene was driving a car on US 80 in Monroe when a trooper attempted to initiate a traffic stop. Greene did not stop until his car crashed into a wooded area. When Greene exited the vehicle,
the lawsuit says Greene began to apologize to the officers.
"Two officers pinned Greene down on the ground while he screamed, 'oh my god.' Greene was moaning, begging the officers to stop and repeatedly saying, 'I'm sorry,'" the lawsuit said.
Greene was tased at least three times according to the lawsuit and died on the way to the hospital.
"Police personnel told Greene's family that he had been killed in an auto accident," the lawsuit reads.
You have the power as the governor of this state to give us transparency
and deal with this matter.
Release the tapes governor It is unacceptable that you have not watched the video now that all these reports are out that #RonaldGreene was possibly murdered by state troopers who covered it up.
Email or call Governor Edwards to take immediate action on the case of Ronald Greene Governorjohnbeledwards@la.gov.
