I thank you for the details (genuinely) -- but my question still stands: Why did they let him leave the scene? The evidence was all there. (It's a large truck, with the back half still in the right lane, cutting across multiple lanes of high-speed traffic at a near standstill, trying to move through an 'Official Use Only' pathway -- all of which directly led to the death of three people.)
To consider a 'similar' scene -- If the police came upon the scene of a 'normal' homicide (with the culprit still at the scene, and non-negotiable evidence available) -- would they let the murderer go home while paperwork was being done? Or would they hold the murderer while the paperwork was expedited?
