A brand new program spearheaded by Michigan State Police Lt. Sara Krebbs is meant to deescalate a confrontational encounter with someone who has autism.

Officials originally said his injuries were caused by a car crash that ended a May 2019 police chase or an ensuing struggle with state troopers. He called on state officials to immediately release the full footage. Even after the trooper’s death, the State Police have refused to comment on Hollingsworth’s use of force or say which policies he was accused of violating in Greene’s arrest. Court records show he served more than a year in prison following a 2015 conviction for burglary and grand theft. The State Police crash report does indicate that alcohol and drug use was “suspected,” but it doesn’t indicate what the toxicology results were.

A Louisiana state trooper has been critically injured in a single-vehicle crash hours after learning he faced firing for his role in the in-custody death of Greene in 2019. (Family photo via AP, File)A Louisiana state trooper was critically injured early Monday in a single-vehicle highway crash that came hours after learning he would be fired for his role last year in the in-custody death of a Black man. The crash Monday that critically wounded Hollingsworth happened along Interstate 20 in Monroe shortly before 3 a.m., just hours after the trooper received a letter Sunday of “intent for discipline,” said Capt. Greene's death also remains the subject of a civil rights investigation by the FBI and the U.S. Justice Department. He called for an investigation of “everybody up the chain of command” who had been aware of the agency's response to Greene's death.

Officials originally said his injuries were caused by a car crash that ended a May 2019 police chase or an ensuing struggle with state troopers. State Police have declined to release the video or comment on the photos due to ongoing investigations of Greene’s death. Attorneys for Greene's family said the images were consistent with the injuries identified in an independent autopsy they commissioned. While more than a year has passed since the crash, the State Police have offered no public accounting of what caused Greene's death. Greene’s death was ruled accidental and attributed to cardiac arrest, said Renee Smith, the Union Parish coroner who was not in office when that determination was made.

Over the weekend state police temporarily shut down Belle Isle twice due to capacity issues. If you need help with the Public File, call (313) 222-0566.
