BAM! I luv this post!!LE releases information to the public when it is in the best interest of an ongoing investigation. They may also withhold information when it is in the best interest of their investigation. We are in the middle ground here, not knowing for sure either way but discussing all possibilities, and it wouldn't be a crime sleuthing forum if we didn't consider the possibility that a crime may have occurred.
Unless LE officially announces that this incident was nothing more than misadventure, members can reasonably speculate on foul play based on information that is publicly available via approved sources.
Nick's description is not hearsay. Hearsay is when it is something related by another person. In this instance, the information came directly from him as a possible witness. What he had to say may or may not be relevant or truthful but it is up to each individual how much weight they wish to apply to what he had to say. True sleuthers aren't about to simply write it off as BS and conclude this was nothing more than an accident without discussing every single aspect of what is available to them.
I doubt AWP is in the business of ruining their established reputation by lying to the public. As for their video having been edited, that may not be sketchy at all. It is possible LE has asked them remove some information that they don't wish the public to know or they themselves have decided it could be detrimental to an ongoing investigation.
It is not a disservice to a family who wants the truth about what happened to their loved one as opposed to what is simply more comfortable for them to believe.
