Just checked and didn't see another thread. Tail number was N227BD. As I understand it both occupants survived the crash. Unfortunately one died later in the hospital. Also, when I looked up the tail number earlier this week, the registered owner does not appear to match the occupants. Our local Midwest flying facebook page indicates it changed ownership in the past few weeks.
I have included its final track log which I think ends within 15min or so of the incident. Looks like a training flight maybe. It appears the chute was pulled during a takeoff / departure. Now hearing some local feedback that the chute was pulled below the recommended altitude. Names of the two pilots are in the included press release (bitmap form)
