Your questions are answerable. I think they border on being ridiculous.
1) How do you propose to find out who was in the flight deck with the limited information now available?
2) There is no proof they went "into the weather". Only speculation. They may have diverted many miles around the nasty weather.
3) The ACARS messages can not replay anything. They are only very simple automated notices designed to give a "heads up" to maintenance.
4) Considering the lack of any concrete information at this point, what do you want them to say?
