Louisiana lawmakers are asking Gov. John Bel Edwards and his top attorneys to testify before a bipartisan committee investigating allegations of a cover-up in the deadly 2019 arrest of Ronald Greene.
FILE - This undated photo provided by his family in September 2020 shows Ronald Greene. Authorities initially said Greene died in May 2019 after crashing his vehicle into a tree following a high-speed chase in rural northern Louisiana that began over an unspecified traffic violation.
State Rep. Clay Schexnayder, the Republican House speaker, cited “serious questions that can only be answered by” the Democratic governor and his staff. “This committee will do its job and see this through no matter where the evidence leads,” Schexnayder said in a statement asking the governor to appear before the committee June 16.
Edwards’ office did not immediately respond to a request for comment Wednesday. The governor initially described the legislative inquiry as a “witch hunt” when it was started in February but later said he would review “very seriously” any requests for documents or testimony.
