An investigation in November launched into allegations of a relationship between an LSU ROTC master sergeant and a cadet is still ongoing but may be resolved soon.
The investigation began when an outsider accused Master Sgt. Wayne Lawrence of being in a forbidden relationship with a cadet.
Lt. Col. John Wright, LSU ROTC battalion commander, said in an e-mail to The Daily Reveille that the case has not yet been closed, but neither he nor the investigating legal team could provide further information.
Wright said a resolution should be reached soon.
Lawrence’s attorney Joseph Blackwell told The Daily Reveille on Nov. 17 that Lawrence denies all allegations, which Blackwell called “baseless.”
Blackwell did not respond to requests for comment by press time.
