A tragedy is an event of great loss, usually of human life. Such an event is said to be tragic. Traditionally, the event would require "some element of moral failure, some flaw in character, or some extraordinary combination of elements" to be tragic.
To me this is tragic even in the Greek sense

Why TF are resources being wasted on digging it up??
Idiocy.
There are REAL needs, in this world, & throwing MORE resources after that narcissist-machiavellian's coffin isn't justifiable.

The article doesn’t make it clear (it could be better written) but my guess is that the card was actually found intact in the wreckage that they recovered back when the sub went down.
The various documentaries by Netflix, Nat Geo, etc. only came out a few months ago as the USCG investigation wrapped up. Those revealed new details, like that they had recovered personal belongings from the pockets of one or two of the victims. I don’t think those details were publicly known (or at least reported on) until the documentaries came out. This is likely just a similar case of more evidence coming to light.
I've watched a couple of them and the National Geographic one was brutal. They have the footage of the comms room on the tender and you can hear the implosion.
A lot of footage of the USCG hearings and the sheer amount of arrogance and stupidity is incredible.

Could someone please post the pics? The website claims that I could click "see more" to view them, but nothing happens when I do that.
