Federal prosecutors won’t seek charges in deadly arrest of Black motorist Ronald Greene
- Federal prosecutors will not bring charges in the 2019 arrest of Black motorist Ronald Greene, ending a lengthy FBI investigation into the actions of white troopers and allegations of a cover-up by the Louisiana State Police.
- The U.S. Justice Department informed Greene's family of the decision while preparing to release findings from a civil rights investigation that uncovered a pattern of excessive force by state troopers.
- The investigation included incidents of state troopers ignoring evidence of misconduct, with one case involving a trooper beating a Black man with a flashlight, resulting in serious injuries.
- The most significant hurdle for federal charges was the death of Chris Hollingsworth, a trooper recorded admitting to beating Greene, which complicated the prosecution of the case.
