Staged Wreck Ring Trial Unfolds | New Orleans News

A federal jury in New Orleans is hearing explosive testimony in a case involving disbarred lawyer Sean Alfortish and Leon Parker, accused of plotting to kill witness Cornelius Garrison—who exposed a massive, years-long scheme of staged car wrecks for insurance fraud. Prosecutors say Alfortish masterminded the hit, with Parker pulling the trigger, but both defenses blame Ryan Harris, already convicted in the wreck ring, as the real shooter. Witnesses, including a driver and an insurance agent, describe Harris’s involvement in staged crashes and Parker’s legal maneuvers after one. With dozens already convicted—including two personal injury lawyers—this trial, set to last weeks, reveals how far criminals will go to protect fraud, and how it ripples through insurance and justice systems.
