...On board were the pilot, a copilot, a physician, a paramedic, the patient, and the escort for the patient, Jet Rescue Air Ambulance said.
A spokesperson for the company, Shai Gold, told NBC Philadelphia the patient was a child who had come to the U.S. for "life-saving treatment" and was returning to Mexico.
"The treatment ran its course. She was ready to go home, and we were contracted to bring her back home to Mexico," Gold said. "Ultimate destination was the Tijuana International Airport and was scheduled to go home by ground ambulance."
He said the cost of the flight was covered by an international charity...

Perhaps the Branson stop was to refuel so they could make Tijuana?

No announcement of mayday is something that does not make sense. There had to be enough time to for the pilot to announce that.

Do you know the most common last words on a voice recorder is before a crash?
"Oh, shit!"
The next most common is:
"Why is it doing that?"

I wonder how far from the runway this Lear made it, I'm guessing this mall area is pretty close to the airport, the speed he flew this thing into the ground would appear that any loss of engine power is not the cause.

Gravity works exceptional well when assisted by speed.

It was shown going in at 250-300 knots (287 - 345mph).
Looks about right when you envision how fast a top-fuel dragster crosses the finish line.

This O2 tank was found a 1/4 mile away!
The valve is gone, likely launched itself that far.

Same with the planes that hit the WTC towers...and they didn't light up the entire sky.
If they had exploded like that they would have blown the tops of the towers clean off.

Any word on ground casualties?
I saw the one guy on fire and heard about debris hitting a customer in a eatery.

maybe for the 1st crash ... but this one appears to be an in flight catastrophic failure .. and the 1 st crash could be pilot error ..

He had those throttles pushed all the way forward in some of those videos you can hear it, similar to the Lear crash in 2017 in Teterboro, that cause was pilot ineptitude, this one probably will be too.

Answer: All of them.
Perhaps it's the "Trump effect" they've been touting since November.
