2 engines 2 pilots EMS. yes or no?

With the recent crash of Airlift Northwest and an Agusta 109 at night in bad weather. Is twin engines enough? Do they need 2 pilots?
I fly Learjets too and I'm here to tell you that when you're in the sh!t weather at night and something goes wrong it's a busy cockpit for 2 pilots. One pilot needs to fly and the other needs to work on the emergency.
If one could afford it , it needs to be a 412 with 2 pilots and plan IFR flying on all flights.
