More often than not a good THI will have it figured out pretty quickly, but the final official report can take time. You can count on the toxicology to take 6-8 weeks for everyone involved. The suspect will probably not speak to investigators now that he has been charged, at least not without a lawyer. Since he has been charged it is fairly safe to say he was at fault in the crash.
sad for sure, my heart goes out to all effected by this terrible event.
Thanks for you dedicated service and glad to see you can enjoy retirement..ride safe
