Commentary on Isidro Hinojosa-Minjarez Car Accident in Ector County
I find that a lot of people out there are willing to just leave situations like this entirely up to the police and just assume everything will work out. But just because car accidents are common doesn't mean they're simple.

If the department in charge doesn't prioritize accident reconstruction, even skilled officers may not have the time or tools they need to get the job done right. As a result, important details can slip through the cracks. Especially for families grieving the loss of a loved one, that isn't good, to say the least. It's one of the reasons I'm always so adamant about independent investigations. The sooner experienced professionals look into things, the sooner there are clear answers. Are those steps being taken here?
