Most likely the US State Department or DOJ, if not the President, had a few
encouraging words to say over the matter. As they aren't going to allow this
one slip quietly away and give the guilty party a slap on the wrist.

Good point. When big shots get killed, vehicular manslaughter is
treated as the serious matter it really is. If it turns out this
driver was racing, she might even be charged with murder. Fine with
