Gov. John Bel Edwards is denying claims that he tried to obscure or misconstrue Ronald Greene's death in state police custody.
Edwards made the comments on Tuesday.
The governor reportedly received a text from the head of the state police a few hours after Greene's death following his arrest in 2019.
Critics are asking what Edwards knew and when he knew it, since Greene's death was initially blamed on a traffic accident.
Edwards insisted he was never involved in the investigation.
