LSU suspended freshman running back JT Lindsey after he was charged with accessory after the fact to second-degree murder.A four-star recruit in the Tigers’ 2025 class, Lindsey turned himself in to campus police Friday. Authorities allege that he opened his dorm room to two fugitives suspected in a fatal shooting in his hometown of Alexandria, La.Lindsey’s attorney, Kris Perret, said his client had no idea the two suspects — Shemell Jacobs, 17, and Keldrick Jordan, 18 — were wanted for any crimes when he allowed them to stay with him beginning on July 24.”At this time, we’re cooperating with LSU PD. My client maintains that he’s fully innocent of all charges and no wrongdoing,” Perret told reporters Friday. “We hope to get this matter straightened out pretty quick, so that’s about all we have to say at this point. We’ll have more information for you later.”The suspects had been wanted by the Alexandria Police Department since mid-May in connection with the shooting death of Corey Brooks, 17, per multiple reports. They were arrested by U.S. Marshals on Monday in Lindsey’s room.According to the arrest affidavit obtained by NOLA.com, Lindsey was seen entering and exiting his dorm multiple times with the two men. They were also seen using his LSU ID card to enter the building on their own.
