The cause was lack of airmanship, loss of SA and poor decision making all leading to a stall.
The company is going to take a HUGE hit on this as the SIC wasn't even suppose to be flying the airplane
Everything about the mishap just makes me hang my head and wonder WHY? So needless on so many levels.

It’s ugly, alright.
USMCFLYR,
Yes, sad and hard to explain for many, but having been at a 135 operator many moons ago, I can easily see captains like this one being in the seat. And co-pilots who were not given the airmanship and mentoring we were given in our services. 135 Operators are going to be testing what minimum qualifications mean for years.

Captain - convicted of assault with a deadly weapon and multiple check ride busts and issues.
FO - convicted of 3rd degree assault on a police officer and multiple check ride busts.
Sometime a history of judgment lapses and poor flying ability are just what they appear to be. Results kind of speak for themselves.

The dark corners of aviation are dark indeed. Hate to say it, but there are hundreds, maybe more, of those types out there just waiting for the chance to make it in the big time. Note that both hid material facts on their medical applications.

Learjet crash in Teterboro
Reading through the interviews on this report, apparently the passengers they took into PHL and were later scheduled to be taken to TEB were shaken up pretty badly upon arrival. So much so, that they elected to drive opposed to stepping onboard that plane again. Speaks volumes and was obviously the smartest decision of their lives.
