I think a news article explaining why the process was taking so long should’ve been published much sooner, but today there’s finally some more transparency. According to the article it’s not atypical for it to take months to arrest a driver— in all the fatal accidents in Stamford last year, it took 3-5 months to arrest the driver if chargers were filed. The district attorney basically need to gather all potential evidence that could be presented in a courtroom, from video footage to medical records and even auto repair records so that when the evidence is presented in front of a jury there will be more than enough to convict and send to prison. Let me know if there is a paywall with this link but I think it should work. Im thinking of the families of Vega and Arias. 🙏 https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/Stamford-fatal-crash-Greenwich-took-5-weeks-17698000.php
