Witness Reveals Murder Plot Behind Fake Truck Crashes | New Orleans News

A federal witness just dropped explosive testimony in a murder trial, admitting he helped plan the killing of Cornelius Garrison — a man cooperating with the FBI on a sprawling investigation into staged 18-wheeler crashes. The witness, Ryan Harris, already pleaded guilty to orchestrating those fake accidents and admitted his role in Garrison’s murder. He claims disbarred attorney Sean Alfortish and his fiancée Vanessa Motta conspired to kill Garrison after he started talking to investigators in 2019. Harris says Alfortish was furious and demanded Garrison be eliminated, then tapped Leon Parker — who allegedly carried out the hit — and even described what Parker wore that night. Harris also testified he picked Parker up afterward and helped dispose of the weapon by tossing it into a canal. While Alfortish and Parker deny involvement, Harris is now facing cross-examination — and may be trying to shift blame to get a lighter sentence.
