Ronald Glasser Charged With Manslaughter In The Road Rage Shooting Death of Former NFL Player Joe McKnight
Ronald Glasser, the man who fatally shot former NFL player Joe McKnight in a road rage incident, has been charged with manslaughter.

Ronald Glasser, the man who fatally shot former NFL player Joe McKnight in a road rage incident, has been charged with manslaughter.
The charges just come days after the New Orleans police department received public scrutiny after releasing Glasser immediately after the incident as investigators said they wanted to look into more facts before formally charging Glasser. The 54-year-old motorist was brought in for questioning immediately following the shooting last Thursday, but was let go much to the dismay of many in the community, considering Gasser confessed to shooting Joe McKnight when law enforcement arrived on the scene.
Jefferson Parish Sheriff Newell Normand defended the department’s decision not to “rush to judgment” on Friday amid criticism. “Everyone should pause and reflect and recognize that a rush to judgment does not equal anything,” Normand said. “The easiest thing for me would have been, ‘Book ‘em, Danno.’ But the fact of the matter is in trying to flesh out these details, we chose not to do that.”
The department previously cited the increasingly controversial Stand Your Ground law as reasoning for initially releasing Ronald Glasser.
