Continental TurboProp crash inbound for Buffalo

[FlyingTinCans]

Is it possible the stick pusher was wired backwards?

More likely is that the autopilot had trimed aft to maintain the altitude while the speed was decaying, and once the stick pusher had released the pilots were presented with an out-of-trim nose up pitch aircraft.

I know we are all taught stall recovery, however, in my training we were told to not trim below a certain speed to stop the above from happening when you recover from it.
