So all the parties involved that wanted so badly not to be involved are now paying for the 11 days it took for them to either give or concoct an explanation. For those 11 days, the story of the crash remained safe and dormant. So you are entitled to believe none of this Shanahan explanation if you so choose, because of those 11 days. None of that's true, unless some of it is true, or unless it's even worse than that. But hey, at least they all had those 11 days of relative peace and quiet, won at the low price of their credibility.
