I certainly am not here to speculate about what happened here, but I am curious to know how the investigations into this accident are being handled. Frankly, while some authorities are able to put aside their bias and let the evidence speak for itself, others will simply assume the victim did something wrong due to their age young age. This can lead to faulty or rushed conclusions.

At the end of the day, there’s a family that deserves answers. If authorities can get them those answers without jumping to conclusions, that’s good. If they can’t, then they need to hand the investigations off to more thorough independent investigators who can do better.
