'taint,
I have to agree with the comments made by John. It really is a matter for the families as to what outcome they deem appropriate. My view is that a verdict of NPD is enough to remove the slur of negligence against Jon and Rick. There is no evidence to support such an accusation.
To answer your question: my position is that I don't know what happened. Then again, no one else does.
Hope this answers your question.
Regards
Brian
