The report dated June 14 2022 is published here: COMMAND INVESTIGATION IN TO THE MV-22B AVIATION MISHAP THAT OCCURRED ON 18 MARCH 2022 DURING EXERCISE COLD RESPONSE

From the summary by Commanding General, 2d Marine Aircraft Wing, FMF:

"The investigation shows, from the recovered video and flight data, that the causal factor for the Ghost 31 mishap was pilot error."

And:

"The investigation also explored five other factors to determine if they contributed to the mishap: weather and environmental factors, procedures for low-altitude training, errors in maintenance paperwork, inexperience in mountainous environments, and the use of recording devices. While there were errors of commission and failures to adhere to procedure, none of the five factors investigated were causal or could reasonably be considered contributory."
