    Federal prosecutors say a key witness in their investigation into car crashes staged for insurance fraud was murdered execution-style, in a new indictment described as a "blockbuster" by WWL-TV investigative reporter Mike Perlstein.

    The indictment alleges the Sep. 22, 2020 murder of Cornelius Garrison was an attempt to stifle a federal investigation.

    Murdering a federal witness could earn the defendant a death penalty, if convicted.

    Garrison had been cooperating with the FBI, as agents were working their way up from street-level scammers to middlemen to the scheme's masterminds.
