Christian,
The authorities will just put their heads in the sand & pretend nothing
happened. I was flabbergasted when the big man himself went on holidays!!
Out of sight, out of mind attitude!

If it was not for the media (in its various forms) most of us would
probably not have heard about this disaster. They have stooped even lower
by sedating upset relatives without their conscent. Blame everyone else
except themselves for the accident. What next.
