Technically depends on Local and State Laws whether it’s viewed as accidental in nature or premeditated. For premeditated to become murder (depending on Local, County, State Laws) is a stretch that has to have solid evidence to classify reopening or dusting off.

Well, I guess that answers my question from about a week ago as to how long it had been since the accident.
Yeah, I was aware of that; but there’s “real time” and what I guess one would call “in-comic time”. The characters do not seem to be aging — Fizz made her first appearance in July of 2008 and 8 years later she’s still small enough to ride in the bakfiets; and there’s another Ohio-based webcomic by the name of David Willis who has been drawing a strip called “Dumbing of Age” since September of 2010 but the amount of time that has transpired “in-comic” is barely one and half calendar months.
So I wondered if Rick was using some sort of ‘flexible’ time-line in the Yehuda-verse as well.
Gas chromatograph test will prove whether it is or not…

I don’t think there’s a LEO in the modern world that wouldn’t follow up on a lead like that.
Also, being a hit and run, wouldn’t that qualify as murder, and unsolved murders never get their cases closed if I’m not mistaken.
