The following is a Press Release from the Louisiana State Police:
In February 2012, detectives
assigned to the Louisiana State Police Bureau of Investigations were asked to
assist the Welsh Police Department with the investigation of a homicide.
Through investigation,
it was learned that 30-year-old Patrina Lyons of Welsh was the driver of a
vehicle when the passenger was shot and killed in Welsh. Lyons implicated a
suspect in the shooting. Further investigation revealed the implicated person
could not have been the shooter because this person was in another city at the
time of the shooting.
On June 21, 2012, investigators
with the Louisiana State Police and the Louisiana Attorney General's Office
located Lyons in Calcasieu Parish and arrested her for false swearing for the
purpose of violating public health and safety.
Lyons was booked into the
Calcasieu Parish Correctional Center on a $200,000 bond.
If convicted, Lyon's faces up to
five years in prison and a $1,000 fine.
