“It’s over. We talked to all the people involved and we found nothing new. There was nothing criminal, that was what we said since it was a tragic accident,” Bianco told the station.

Sperbeck, 62, died in a golf course in California when he fell from the golf cart that Elway was driving. The County County Coroner office judged that his death was accidental due to a cranial trauma.

“I watched the video 100 times and there is no explanation on the reason he fell, he just fell,” added Bianco.
