"Because of the damage caused by the collision, the car was physically incapable of transmitting log data to our servers and we therefore have no way of knowing whether or not Autopilot was engaged at the time of the crash. We have tried repeatedly to work with our customer to investigate the cause of the crash, but he has not provided us with any additional information that would allow us to do so."

So maybe autopilot was engaged, maybe it wasn't. I say Tesla needs to start logging remotely any time the autopilot is engaged and disengaged.

And until the actual status of the autopilot is known this is just another kid driving dad's car too aggressively.
