I can only hope authorities came up with more information behind the scenes for the victim’s family here. It would surprise folks how often I looked over a motorcycle wreck weeks or months down the line, and it turned out authorities just moved on without ever actually getting the whole story. That’s why motorcycle accidents sometimes require more thorough independent investigations to finally get to the bottom of what actually happened and get the victim’s family the answers they deserve. It remains to be seen if that’s true here, as well.
