Seems like law enforcement has a problem with high speed power boating.

Sounds like law enforcement in CA to me... at least that guy got prosecuted.

Any news from California? Last word from August was that the State Dept of Justice was to investigate...Have they come to any conclusions?

I saw an article in the Raleigh News & Observer today about a simular story that occured a few years ago in NC. This time it was the NC Lt. Governor's sons in the boat that crashed into another boat. They were drinking and they claimed that the boat they hit did not have their navagation lights on.

At least in the land of Deputy Barney Fife, we charged the right person.

I left out the best part of the article. The couple in the boat that was hit..... they were in the nude making out. The defense attorney is claiming that was the reason they did not have their lights on. This trial should be interesting.

Bump

Any update on this? Did they release the innocent sailor?Was the drunken killer cop ever convicted? Was the rotten incestuous D.A. finally kicked off the case? What about the sheriffs who refused to take the statements of the eye-witnesses?
