A little more about this crash.
It appears the airplane landed, bounced along the runway, and 600 feet
from touchdown went off the runway, hit a tree, and the impact
deployed the rescue parachute.
At first blush, an accident on landing. The NTSB report will be
instructive, it's not often I've read of GA airplanes at that stage of
landing being in a fatality.
