NO ONE knows that the transponder was turned off. This is why words matter so much in an accident investigation and why the NTSB is so diligent it how they word their press releases and statements. What we are seeing is an example of a wild west accident investigation, without the NTSB, and the media in charge. Impressive, isn't it?
