Any updates on this case?

I can't find any updates. It seems so weird that nothing has been said.

The latest I have found was from WRTV 6 here in Indianapolis.

I wonder if we'll hear something soon? I hope the family is doing well after suffering such a huge loss.

Well dang.

Was it released anywhere when they did the autopsy? I'm surprised that alcohol would still be in his system given they were in the water for so long before being found.

I know this is an unpopular opinion, but goodness I hate alcohol. Sometimes I can’t believe it’s legal. If any other drug caused as many accidents and deaths as alcohol did, we would be outraged. Sigh. So sorry for this dad and his babies, and the family left behind.

JMO.

I'm right with you on that. The poor poor family!

Do they think he drove there intoxicated, or did he pack up the kids and take some alcohol with him, and drink it there?

 

[ashhouston]

I was wondering if he was intoxicated

I am wondering if he was already a bit intoxicated when he picked them up, just due to the later hour and lack of packing diapers, clothes, inhaler, etc. Just speculating.

Further, are we to think he was so intoxicated that he couldn't save himself or the kids as the car accidentally rolled into the water? Would he have been unconscious? Otherwise it's a bit hard to believe he didn't escape in some way, from stepping on the brakes to swimming out a window-weren't the windows open?

New to this case but was the car recovered from the water as well?

From meanmaryjean's link:

"On July 13, responders found the children in a car at the bottom of a pond and Moorman nearby."

Poor babies.

Night fishing is very popular at indianapolis ponds, and often drinking beer while fishing is popular as well.

So sad for the family.

I believe I read that his body was actually found floating in the water, not in the car. Which makes me think he actually somehow did escape the vehicle, or was not in it when it rolled in the water. Maybe tried to stop it and got dragged into the water.

Acute ethanol intoxication, as listed by the coroner, is NOT someone who is mildly under the influence and likely able to function in an emergency. They would be at or exceed legal intoxication of 80 mg/dL, or 0.08 g/dL. With acute ethanol intoxication loss of motor control is not uncommon as is decreased respiratory drive. Assuming he was conscious, he may have been unable to perform basic tasks to save them. So sad, all the way around.
