No one has mentioned this but I think there may have been a collision and a crash. First impact from a LE vehicle, resulting in airbags being deployed, then the crash into the ditch, rolling the car. Two massive points of impact IMO.
I think OnStar or something similar made a call. We haven't IMO seen footage of the chase itself. Or how many minutes elapsed between an initial collision and LE approaching the vehicle after the final crash.
It sounds to me like VW was taking stock of the situation. Damage control as they're still driving a wrecked car. She suggests making a run for it.
The crash in the ditch had to be nothing short of concussive. If CW got the wind knocked out, and VW had only a moment to evaluate, she may have thought he was dead. With LE surrounding them, was she really going to try to escape on her own? No way out so IMO she took the only way out.
CW's first words IMO were not affection. They were self-serving. Quick with the "I didn't shoot her." (Chilling that that's his position too with the case they're reopening, ruled a suicide previously.)
And now we hear there were dry runs????? This whole thing, poorly planned out but so calculating.... carried through right to the end.
it was never going to end well.
The car ended up up-ended in a ditch but the collateral damage spreads far and wide.
And why?
