S 76 is a powerful bird flying IFR is not a problem. But, I'd rather have 2 pilots in IFR than 1 b/c things can get rather busy.
Law enforcement was grounded due to fog I think mainly b/c they have little reason to fly IFR to look for bad guys and chase cars - gotta see 'em to catch 'em. Don't know if they have IFR rated choppers and pilots.
Whatever the final cause it won't just be fog, it will be that plus some other contributing factor either pilot error or mechanical failure.
Too many variables to speculate but if I had to guess it would be all of the above.

Something you can get while piloting an aircraft without any horizontal references or not trusting your instruments. It's similar to spatial disorientation, which killed John F. Kennedy, Jr., and a lot of other pilots and passengers.
