LSU running back Trey Holly is speaking out since being charged with second-degree murder following a shooting at his apartment on Feb. 9 in Union Parish, Louisiana.
Holly surrendered to police and is one of three suspects arrested for shooting a woman, who was shot three times, while a man was also shot in the leg. Three shooters fired multiple rounds after an earlier altercation at the apartment complex, according to The Advocate.
Holly was also charged with aggravated criminal damage to property and unlawful use of a weapon, according to ESPN.

Holly took to Facebook to say she is “100% innocent” despite the charges.
“As you know, I was recently arrested on three felony charges,” he wrote. “I have been falsely identified, accused and arrested. I am 100% innocent and people who know me know that this is not my character at all. I was not involved in the incident at all.

“I was at my home, which is where the incident occurred. I turned myself in because I was served with an arrest warrant and wanted to cooperate fully. Because this is an ongoing investigation, I can't give many details.
“To my fans, I'm sorry for the confusion, but you know this is not me at all. I will be back better than ever and I hope to prove my innocence. To the ROYALS, thank you all for being by my side throughout the entire process. Right now difficult, I got this and my story will be told one day and it will be LEGENDARY.

LSU issued a statement regarding Holly's matter, saying he was suspended indefinitely while the legal process unfolded.
“We are aware that a student-athlete has been arrested in connection with a shooting in Union Parish,” LSU's statement read. “This student-athlete has been suspended indefinitely from all team activities, in accordance with departmental policies. Out of respect for the judicial process, we will not be commenting further,” the school said.
Holly played in just three games in his freshman season in 2023, racking up 110 rushing yards on 11 carries, including a 67-yard touchdown on Oct. 21 against Army. He had 91 yards in that game, which led to him being nominated for SEC Freshman of the Week.
Originally from Louisiana, Holly was the No. 4 runner in the country after breaking the state's rushing record.
